Relating to the provision of the reason for rejecting a voter registration application.

HB 138 requires election registrars to provide specific written or oral reasons when rejecting a voter registration application. It mandates that registrars identify exactly which part of the application caused the rejection (e.g., incomplete, improperly filled, or ineligible information) rather than giving vague explanations. This directly affects voters whose applications are denied and election officials responsible for processing registrations. The bill amends Texas Election Code Section 13.073 to implement this transparency requirement, taking effect 91 days after the legislative session ends.
