HB 305 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 2nd Called Session (2025)

Relating to election procedures regarding accepting a voter with a residence address that is not current and the immediate effect of a voter's registration after the registrar's receipt of certain change of address notices.

HB 305 modifies Texas election procedures to allow voters who change their residence within a county to vote immediately in their new precinct, rather than waiting 30 days for registration updates. It requires voters to submit a statement at the polling place confirming their new address and meeting residency requirements, including providing full registration details. This applies only to voters changing address within the same county, not to those moving to a different county. The bill takes effect for notices submitted on or after its effective date, making registration changes effective immediately upon submission of the required statement. It does not affect voters moving to a different county or those who have already updated their registration.
