Bill Summary
Requesting that the attorney general of the United States audit and review the state department of licensing's implementation of the "motor voter law."
AI Summary
This Joint Memorial respectfully asks the United States Attorney General to investigate how the Washington State Department of Licensing is implementing the "Motor Voter Law," which automatically registers people to vote when they interact with the department, such as when getting a driver's license. The memorial expresses concern that this process might not adequately verify if individuals are legal voters, potentially diluting the voting power of eligible citizens. The memorial also requests that the Attorney General report the findings of this audit and review, and take any necessary corrective actions.
