+      Accessibility is important. React-select is committed to providing a custom experience to all users and relies heavily on the aria-live spec to provide

       ## Sortable MultiSelect
       Using the [react-sortable-hoc](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-sortable-hoc) package we can easily allow sorting of MultiSelect values by drag and drop.
