Same Day Registration Act of 2025
This bill requires states to allow eligible voters to register or update their registration at polling places on election day for federal elections, including during early voting periods. It applies to all states except those with existing laws eliminating voter registration requirements for federal elections. The key mechanism mandates that voters can both register and cast their ballot on the same day at designated polling locations. The requirement takes effect for the November 2026 general election and all subsequent federal elections.
