Hiring Preference for Veterans, Disabled, and Military Families in Election Work.

This new law allows states and local jurisdictions to prioritize veterans, individuals with disabilities, and military spouses and dependents when hiring election workers. This means these groups may have an easier path to employment as election officials, and military spouses and dependents won't be disqualified solely for not residing in the state.
Key points
Veterans and individuals with disabilities may receive hiring preference for election worker positions.
Military spouses and dependents may receive preference and cannot be denied solely for non-residency.
The law aims to facilitate the employment of these groups in election administration.
