Voter Eligibility Verification Act of 2024
HR 10556, the Voter Eligibility Verification Act of 2024, requires state and local government agencies to respond to requests about a person's immigration status within 30 days if those requests relate to voter eligibility. It amends an existing law (8 U.S.C. 1373(c)) by adding a specific 30-day deadline for agencies to provide such information upon request. The bill directly affects agencies handling voter registration and immigration status data, streamlining how they respond to verification inquiries. It does not change voter eligibility rules but modifies the response timeline for specific immigration-related queries tied to voting.
