Our Homes, Our Votes Act

Bill 118 hr 10215, also known as the "Voter Registration in Federally Assisted Housing Act," aims to amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. The bill proposes that when individuals apply for a lease for a dwelling unit under certain federally assisted housing programs, it will also serve as a simultaneous application for voter registration in elections for Federal office.

Additionally, the bill designates owners of dwelling units under certain federally assisted housing programs as voter registration agencies for the purposes of the National Voter Registration Act. This means that these owners will be responsible for assisting residents in registering to vote.

The main goal of this bill is to increase voter registration among individuals living in federally assisted housing programs. By streamlining the voter registration process and designating housing owners as voter registration agencies, the bill aims to make it easier for residents to participate in elections for Federal office. Overall, the Voter Registration in Federally Assisted Housing Act seeks to promote voter engagement and ensure that all eligible individuals have the opportunity to exercise their right to vote in Federal elections.
