Purpose and Summary

Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
Bill 119 HR 55, also known as the National Voter Registration Act Repeal Act, aims to repeal the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. The National Voter Registration Act, also known as the "Motor Voter" law, was enacted to make it easier for Americans to register to vote by allowing them to register at Department of Motor Vehicle offices, public assistance agencies, and other government offices.

The sponsors of Bill 119 HR 55 argue that the National Voter Registration Act has led to voter fraud and inaccuracies in voter rolls. They believe that the law has made it too easy for ineligible individuals to register to vote and that it has not effectively prevented voter fraud.

Supporters of the National Voter Registration Act argue that it has increased voter participation and made the registration process more accessible to all Americans. They believe that repealing the law would disenfranchise many voters, particularly those in marginalized communities who may face barriers to voter registration. If Bill 119 HR 55 is passed, the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 would be repealed, potentially changing the way Americans register to vote and impacting voter turnout in future elections. The bill is currently being debated in Congress, and its outcome remains uncertain.
