No Foreign Persons Administering Our Elections Act
This bill prohibits states and local jurisdictions from hiring non-U.S. citizens to run federal elections (such as for president or Congress). It requires that all individuals administering these elections must be U.S. citizens, directly affecting election offices and their hiring practices. The rule applies to all federal election administration roles and takes effect after the bill is signed into law. This is a straightforward eligibility requirement for election staff, with no additional mechanisms or exemptions described in the text.
