High School Voter Empowerment: Mandatory Registration Drives and Funding.

This law requires all public high schools to conduct mandatory annual voter registration drives for eligible students.

Federal grants will be provided to reimburse schools for the costs associated with running these drives.
Key points
All public high schools are designated as official voter registration agencies.
Schools must hold voter registration drives at least once per year for eligible students (age 17+).
Federal funding will be available to reimburse schools for the reasonable costs of conducting these registration activities.
