SB 1217 Referred

SB 1217 - Current law requires an excuse in order to vote absentee beginning the 6th Tuesday prior to the election. This act repeals the need for an excuse and instead allows voting absentee with no excuse beginning on the 6th Tuesday prior to the election. This act is identical to SB 470 (2025) and substantially similar to HB 1883 (2024). SCOTT SVAGERA
