Seyfarth is pleased to provide a 50-State Survey of Voting Leave & Political Activity Laws. This state-by-state analysis is accompanied by a one-page map that illustrates state law requirements and variations at a glance.
With the upcoming Presidential election imminent, navigating the patchwork of state voting leave laws, plus the hot topic of political communications in the workplace, are top of mind for employers. Businesses nationwide must decide whether to provide time off to vote, if so how much, and whether that time must be paid. Beyond voting leave and other election issues, employers must decide whether to allow workplace communications about race, gender gaps, the environment, and other potentially controversial topics. These subjects are governed primarily by state laws that vary dramatically from state to state.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
