MI SR0046

Urges the U.S. Congress and President to exempt absent voter ballots from postage requirements when using the United States Postal Service for federal elections.

Cites equal access to voting as a constitutional cornerstone and notes that 3.3 million absent voter ballots were cast in Michigan during the 2020 general election with inconsistent postage treatment.

Argues that federal legislative action through Congress would provide unambiguous protection from postage requirements, preventing future changes by unelected postal regulators.

Directs copies of the resolution to be sent to the President, President of the U.S. Senate, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, and Michigan's congressional delegation.
