Easier Voter Registration for New US Citizens
New rules aim to make voter registration easier for new United States citizens. USCIS field offices and naturalization ceremonies will become places where individuals can apply to register to vote immediately, streamlining the process and potentially increasing voter participation. Citizens will gain more convenient access to their voting rights.
Key points
USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) field offices will be designated as voter registration agencies, allowing new citizens to register to vote directly after completing their naturalization process.
During court naturalization ceremonies, USCIS officials will be authorized to conduct voter registration activities, enabling new citizens to exercise their right to vote immediately.
Funding for these activities will come from existing USCIS accounts and additional appropriations, ensuring smooth implementation of the new procedures without extra costs to citizens.
