AI Summary

I apologize, but the XML content you've provided does not contain the full text of the bill, just a title and a government summary. Without the actual bill text or details about its specific provisions, I can only provide a summary based on the limited information available: This bill requires county clerks to automatically send mail-in ballot applications to registered voters when they turn 18 years old. The legislation aims to make voter registration and ballot access more convenient for young adults by proactively providing them with mail-in ballot application forms at the moment they become eligible to vote. By sending these applications directly to new voters on their 18th birthday, the bill seeks to potentially increase voter participation among young adults by reducing barriers to voting and making the process of obtaining a mail-in ballot more streamlined.
