Bill > HB0288

This bill amends Utah law to make voter registration information and forms available at offices of the Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) when individuals are purchasing hunting or fishing licenses in person. An "applicant" is defined as someone seeking to buy a hunting or fishing license in person and who is eligible to register or preregister to vote, while "voter registration information" includes instructions, deadlines, and contact details for voter registration. The lieutenant governor will supply these materials to DWR offices, and DWR offices must offer a voter registration form and information to applicants, with a specific statement about deciding whether to register, and direct any questions to the Office of the Lieutenant Governor or a county clerk. Additionally, for those purchasing licenses online, the DWR will provide a link to the state's online voter registration application. This bill is set to become effective on May 6, 2026.
