None

U.S. Senators Reed, Whitehouse, and Hirono introduce the Time Off to Vote Act, promoting paid voting leave for workers.

Quiver AI Summary

U.S. Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse, along with Senator Mazie K. Hirono and 15 other colleagues, introduced the Time Off to Vote Act. This legislation aims to grant workers at least two consecutive hours of paid leave to vote in federal elections. Currently, there is no federal requirement for voting leave, leading to inconsistencies among state laws.

Senator Hirono emphasized the importance of voter participation, stating that the legislation is a step towards ensuring every eligible voter can have their voice heard. Poll data indicate that around 10% of eligible voters cite work-related issues as a reason for not voting.

In addition to the three Senators, the bill is co-sponsored by numerous Democratic Senators and has companion legislation in the U.S. House, introduced by Representative Nikema Williams. Various organizations endorse the act, advocating for increased access to voting.
