[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would change the rule that stops British people living overseas from voting if they've been away for more than 15 years. It would allow these expats to continue voting in UK elections even after 15 years abroad, giving them a permanent say in British politics.

Presented by Geoffrey Clifton-Brown.
