Constitution; amend to provide that only U.S. citizens are allowed the opportunity to vote.

This bill (HC 22) proposes a constitutional amendment to Mississippi's voting rules, explicitly requiring U.S. citizenship for all voters. It would amend Section 241 of the Mississippi Constitution to state that only U.S. citizens may vote in state elections, removing any existing ambiguity about non-citizen voting eligibility. The amendment was scheduled to be submitted to voters in November 2026 for approval. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not advance further.
