Boren Co-sponsors Military Voting Act

Congressman Dan Boren, D-2nd District, a Member of the House Armed Services Committee, joined Congressman Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) today as the lead Democratic co-sponsor of H.R.2393, or the Military Voting Protection Act of 2009.
By allowing the U.S. Postal Service to express-ship troops’ absentee ballots, the legislation would help ensure the ballots are delivered to local election offices back home in time to be counted.
Senator Jim Inhofe is a Senate co-sponsor of the legislation.
