Summary

The ACLU of Kansas opposes the passage of HB 2056. This bill is one of many election-related bills introduced this session that limits the voting rights of Kansans or tampers with a well-functioning electoral system because of unsubstantiated concerns about the integrity of our elections. The current 3-day grace period is necessary to allow voters, the USPS, and election clerks much needed flexibility to ensure all votes are appropriately counted.
