We oppose AB 54/SB 324 which places statewide limits on voting hours. It obstructs convenient opportunities for working people, the elderly, and the disabled to vote prior to election day.
Why is this important?
Assembly Bill 54/Senate Bill 324 limits the time available to vote. People who work for a living, the elderly, and the disabled benefit from evening and weekend hours to vote. The legislature should be expanding voting hours to maximize participation in our electoral process not limiting them, the authority of local clerks to set hours, and the staff legally authorized to accept absentee ballots as mandated in AB54/SB324.
