AI Summary
This bill enacts the Agreement Among the States to Elect the President by National Popular Vote, which establishes a system for states to award their electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote, rather than the candidate who wins the popular vote in that state. The agreement will take effect when states representing a majority of the electoral votes have joined. Member states must conduct a statewide popular election for President and Vice President, and their election officials must determine the national popular vote winner and certify the appointment of that candidate's slate of presidential electors. The agreement includes provisions for withdrawing from the compact and termination if the Electoral College is abolished.
