Bill > SB375

This bill requires school districts and charter schools in Missouri to provide two opportunities each school year for students who are 17½ years old to register to vote. Specifically, schools must offer voter registration during school hours on the fourth Tuesday in September (or the next available school day), and coordinate with local election authorities to organize a second registration opportunity later in the year. The secretary of state will prepare informational materials to be distributed during these voter registration activities, and schools must file an annual report with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education by December 31st detailing their voter registration efforts. This bill aims to increase youth voter engagement by making it more convenient for soon-to-be-eligible voters to register while still in high school, potentially encouraging greater civic participation among young people.
