S-2197 : Still Just a Bill


Supporting Military Voters Act

This bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study and report on access to voting for uniformed services voters.

Specifically, the GAO must

  • study ways to improve access to voter registration information and assistance for members of the Armed Forces and their family members.
