HR 4317 United States House · 118th Congress

To amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to require States to submit a report to the Election Assistance Commission that includes information with respect to the voter list maintenance activities of the State, and for other purposes.

HR 4317 requires states to submit annual reports to the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) about voter list maintenance. States must report specific data for each odd-numbered year, including: (1) the number of inactive voters (based on voting history) and how long they've been inactive, (2) voters who participated in two prior federal elections, (3) voters removed from lists under current rules, (4) notices sent to inactive voters, and (5) responses received to those notices. This bill directly affects all states that maintain voter registration lists under the National Voter Registration Act. The reporting requirement begins after the bill's enactment and aims to standardize transparency around voter list management.
