Election Security Partnership Act

The Election Security Partnership Act allocates $20 million in additional funding to states that agree to share their voter registration lists with the Department of Homeland Security. To receive these funds, eligible states must enter a written agreement to provide quarterly updates of their voter rolls to the SAVE system for the purpose of verifying citizenship status. This provision directly affects states participating in the 2026 election security grant program, linking financial assistance to the specific requirement of data sharing for identity verification. The bill does not alter existing election laws but creates a conditional funding mechanism based on administrative cooperation between state election officials and federal agencies.
