The Election Mail Act aims to improve procedures and requirements related to election mail.
The Election Mail Act amends title 39, United States Code, and the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to improve procedures and requirements related to election mail. Key provisions include: ensuring same-day processing of absentee ballots, requiring the use of intelligent mail barcodes for ballots, mandating the Postmaster General to consult with Indian Tribes annually, and establishing a uniform deadline for the acceptance of mailed ballots. The act also restricts operational changes by the Postal Service that could hinder the prompt and reliable delivery of election mail.
