The bill amends Section 17-20-2.1 of the General Laws concerning mail ballots, introducing new requirements for the validity of mail ballot applications and ballots. It specifies that no person shall offer to mail or mail another person's mail ballot, with exceptions for the mail ballot voter, their spouse, court-appointed guardian, cohabitant, or any adult related by blood or marriage. Violating this provision would be classified as a misdemeanor, with penalties including imprisonment for up to one year or a fine of up to $1,000. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
