Most states leave disability issues out of their election reform legislation.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, only 11 states have election reform legislation that affects voters with disabilities. Visit the NCSL Web site and see what your state is doing with regard to voters with disabilities. Urge your state legislators to do the right thing. States should require all of their polling sites to be physically accessible and all of their voting systems should offer a secret and independent ballot to all voters. For model legislation, visit the Texas Secretary of State Web site .
