HR 4396 United States House · 118th Congress

American Confidence in Elections: District of Columbia Citizen Voter Act

This bill amends the Help America Vote Act to prohibit noncitizens from voting in any District of Columbia election. It adds a new section requiring voters to be U.S. citizens for all DC elections, including local, federal, and ballot initiatives. The change directly affects noncitizen residents of Washington, D.C., who currently may vote in some local elections. The bill updates existing voting law to enforce citizenship as a requirement for voting in DC's electoral process.
