A 3067 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Expands automatic voter registration process to Medicaid applicants; provides for voter registration opt-out following receipt of registration notice.

This bill (A 3067) would expand automatic voter registration to Medicaid applicants in New Jersey. It requires the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services to automatically transmit voter registration information to the Secretary of State for eligible Medicaid applicants (age 18+, U.S. citizens) unless they opt out. Key mechanisms include electronic transmission of applicant data and mandatory notices informing applicants they can decline registration. The bill directly affects Medicaid applicants who would be automatically registered to vote during their application process, with an opt-out option provided in the notice. This builds on existing automatic registration for motor vehicle license applicants under current law.
