Bill > H613

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 229 of the Acts of 2010, which concerns the agreement among states to elect the President by national popular vote. Specifically, it seeks to change the wording in "Article IV" by replacing the word "when" with "if by January 1, 2018," indicating a potential condition or deadline for the agreement to take effect. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which this bill relates to, is an agreement among U.S. states and the District of Columbia to award their electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the national popular vote, regardless of the outcome in their individual states, thereby effectively making the national popular vote the deciding factor in presidential elections.
