Subject: [LWVNM Action] Victory for voting rights tonight
We still have a way to go, but tonight in House Judiciary they passed
SB 144 protection for election officials with the most important features of SB 6, the technical bill and some of the features of SB 8- youth voting in local elections and non incarcerated convicted persons. The vote was 8-3. It will go to the House floor as SB144. Much of it strengthens voter access and ballot security.
It still needs to pass the House and go back to the Senate for concurrence.
Watch for an Action Constant Contact tomorrow morning.on how you can help.
This was a top priority for the LWVNM
