VOTERS/VOTING: Creates the Task Force on Ensuring Voter Participation in the Political Process to study mechanisms to ensure and promote voter participation in the political process.

SR 154 is a resolution creating the Task Force on Ensuring Voter Participation in the Political Process. The task force, composed of 15 members representing state officials, election administrators, and community organizations, will study mechanisms to boost voter turnout - including election consolidation and civic engagement strategies - and submit written recommendations to the legislature by 2026. It directly affects Louisiana voters and election administration by examining factors like frequent elections (which contributed to low 2024 turnout) and local election participation rates. The resolution does not enact new laws but requires the task force to provide actionable proposals before the 2026 legislative session.
