Relating to federal involvement in elections

HB 4160 requires West Virginia state agencies to obtain legislative approval before implementing any new federal election guidance or accepting new federal election funding. It also mandates that state agencies notify the Governor, Secretary of State, and Legislature whenever they receive communications from federal agencies about elections. The bill directly affects state election officials and the Legislature by creating formal review processes for federal election-related actions. Key provisions include the approval requirement for federal guidance and funding, plus the notification obligation for federal election communications. This bill does not change voter rules or election procedures but alters how state agencies interact with federal election policies.
