The Early Voting Act would let senior citizens, persons with disabilities, lawyers, and health‑sector workers cast their ballots before election day. It creates a nationwide registration for these groups, requires COMELEC to keep records, set up a registration system with other agencies, make polling places accessible, and run an information campaign. Funding comes from COMELEC’s current budget, and rules must be issued within 90 days after the law takes effect.
