Bill > H6656

This bill amends existing laws to entitle disabled and military voters to utilize electronically transmitted ballots. It allows the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) to be used as a request for an absentee ballot by certain categories of voters, including members of the armed forces, people absent from the state for military-related services, and US citizens residing outside the US. The bill also allows eligible disabled voters to electronically receive and return their mail ballots using the same electronic transmission system as voters covered by the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), which satisfies federal accessibility standards. The provisions in this bill will take effect upon passage and expire on December 31, 2025.
