Requires school districts and charter schools to offer students who are 17 1/2 years old the opportunity to register to vote
SB 375 requires public school districts and charter schools to provide all students aged 17½ the opportunity to register to vote during school hours. This directly affects 17½-year-old students in participating schools across the state. The bill's key provision mandates that schools must facilitate voter registration, such as by providing forms or digital access, without requiring students to actually register. It does not change voting eligibility but aims to increase youth voter participation by making registration accessible during school. The bill is currently under review by the Senate Education Committee.
