Bill overview
This bill aims to prevent anyone from being paid or receiving gifts to deliver mail-in ballots to voters. It allows certain employees and volunteers from specific organizations – like hospitals, nursing homes, and veterans’ homes – to serve as ballot messengers or bearers, provided they don't receive additional compensation beyond their regular duties. The bill also clarifies that reimbursement for transportation costs is permitted, but not considered additional compensation.
