Voter Protection: Stopping Removal from Rolls for Not Voting.

This law prevents state authorities from automatically removing citizens from voter registration lists solely because they failed to vote in previous elections or did not respond to election mail. The changes protect voting rights by requiring objective evidence of ineligibility (such as death or permanent move out of state) before removal. Furthermore, individuals who move within the same state can easily vote on Election Day by confirming their new address.
Key points
States cannot remove voters from registration lists based only on failure to vote or failure to respond to election mail.
Easier voting process for citizens who move within the same state; they can affirm their new address on Election Day.
Mandatory 48-hour notice to voters removed from the list, including information on how to appeal or be reinstated.
