"Protecting Mail-in Voters Act"; requires those who vote by mail to enclose copy of personal identification.

This bill requires New Jersey voters who use mail-in ballots to include a copy of their state-accepted photo ID (matching their name and current address) with their ballot envelope. It directly affects all voters choosing mail-in voting in New Jersey elections, including first-time mail-in voters who did not provide ID when registering. Failure to enclose the ID copy will result in ballot rejection, though voters may correct the issue through a specified curing process. The bill also ensures that ID details, phone numbers, and email addresses provided with ballots remain confidential and not publicly disclosed. The measure is currently pending before the legislature, having been introduced on January 13, 2026.
