Describe the bug

The range slider has no visible instructions (and therefore no screen reader accessible instructions) for how to operate the range slider.

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Go to https://designsystem.digital.gov/components/range-slider/
  2. Note there are no instructions on how to select an amount.

Expected Behavior

The range slider needs visible instructions, which are also screen reader accessible, to pass WCAG 3.3.2 labels or instructions.

Above the range slider element add the instructions "Move the button to the right to increase the amount and to the left to decrease it."

Ensure the instructions are associated programmatically with the range slider to they are also accessible to a screen reader to comply with 1.3.1 Info and relationships.
