Blocking Federal Funds for States Allowing Non-Citizen Voting in Elections.

This bill aims to cut off Federal funding for state and local governments that permit non-citizens to vote in any election, whether Federal, State, or local. If local jurisdictions choose to expand voting rights to non-citizens, they risk losing significant Federal money intended for public services and projects. This measure forces local governments to choose between their current voting policies and essential Federal grants.
Key points
State and local governments will lose access to Federal funds if they allow non-citizens to cast ballots in any election.
To receive Federal money, governments must officially certify that only U.S. citizens are permitted to vote.
The funding restrictions apply only to contracts or grants made after the law is enacted.
