SB1 by Sen Gudger would criminalize individuals or civic organization employees who assist with the absentee ballot application process if any form of compensation or gift, such as gas money, is exchanged. The bill does not define what constitutes a “gift,” leaving room for interpretation.

This bill is a blatant attack on civic engagement organizations who would no longer be able to reimburse volunteers for gas or provide stamps to assist with the absentee ballot application process.
