WASHINGTON, Oct. 22 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, Congress enacted the National Defense Authorization Act which includes provisions that will resolve several key voting problems for American military service members and citizens overseas.
The bill encompasses the Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment
(MOVE) Act, which is sponsored by Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), co-sponsored
by Senator Robert Bennett (R-UT) and supported by a bipartisan group of
senators and representatives. It will expedite the transmission of absentee
ballots to military personnel and civilians abroad to provide more time for
them to vote in U.S. elections and return their ballots in time to be counted.
