Bill Summary

AI Summary
This bill aims to restrict federal agencies' involvement in voter registration and mobilization activities by prohibiting them from using funds to collaborate with non-governmental organizations for voter-related initiatives on agency property or websites. Specifically, the bill targets Executive Order 14019, which promoted voter access, by requiring agencies to delay implementing its provisions and submit reports to congressional committees about their voter registration plans. The bill mandates that agencies cannot solicit or enter into agreements with non-governmental organizations to conduct voter registration activities, provide voter registration materials, or distribute voting-related information. Additionally, the legislation modifies the Higher Education Act to prevent federal work-study programs from involving voter registration or mobilization activities. Each agency must submit a report within 30 days of the bill's enactment detailing their previous voter registration efforts, and the restrictions will apply to fiscal year 2025 and subsequent years. The bill defines "agency" using existing federal code and specifies that "appropriate congressional committees" include specific Senate and House committees related to rules, administration, and judiciary.
