Bill > H7007

This bill allows eligible disabled voters and military voters covered by the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) to continue using electronically transmitted ballots for voting, ensuring these systems meet security and accessibility standards, including independent security reviews and compliance with federal cybersecurity guidelines. The bill also clarifies the definition of an "eligible disabled voter" as someone who certifies that voting in person would be an undue hardship due to illness, disability, blindness, or mobility impairment. This measure aims to maintain existing voting options for these specific groups of voters and will become effective immediately upon its passage.
