A new House bill unveiled on Thursday by Congress Member Dan Goldman (D-Manhattan/Brooklyn) seeks to make voting easier by requiring a 14-day early voting period nationally and making polling locations more accessible.

The legislation, named the “Early Voting Act,”  would establish a national minimum 14-day early voting period, which would include weekends, and require polling sites to stay open for at least 10 hours a day during each day of early voting. They would also have to allow voting for some time before 9 a.m. and after 5 p.m.
