Bill > SB513

This bill requires Wisconsin school boards to provide voter registration materials and civic education to high school students who become eligible to vote. Specifically, each school board must give students a standard voter registration form along with information about voting eligibility, as well as nonpartisan educational materials that explain the role of citizens and emphasize the importance of participating in elections. The bill creates a new section (6.31) in Wisconsin's statutes that mandates these actions for all school districts, ensuring that students receive critical information about their voting rights and civic responsibilities when they first become eligible to register. By requiring schools to proactively distribute these materials, the bill aims to increase voter awareness and participation among young people who are newly eligible to vote.
