Relating to early voting by mail by any qualified voter and to the repeal of certain criminal offenses concerning the solicitation and distribution of an application to vote by mail.

SB 1584 would allow any qualified Texas voter to request an early voting ballot by mail without restrictions. It repeals criminal penalties for soliciting or distributing mail-in voting applications, removing legal barriers for voter assistance. The bill amends Election Code sections to ensure all eligible voters - including those in the address confidentiality program - can apply for mail-in ballots without needing to submit applications in person. This changes current rules requiring certain voters to deliver applications personally, making mail-in voting more accessible statewide.
