7. Here is my proposal
A law that gives all employers a tax credit for every employee who:

A. Votes on or before election day.
B. Takes election day off to work in the polls on election day.(This credit should be worth more than the just voting)
C. Or the employer could choose a tax credit for being closed on election day

The law would stipulate that the employer must allow the employee as much time as necessary to leave work travel to the polling place and vote. The only way the employer can get the tax credits is verify his employees voted.
