Bill Summary
Automatically registering eligible voters and enhancing safeguards against fraud
AI Summary
This bill aims to automatically register eligible voters and enhance safeguards against fraud. It requires the state secretary to enter into agreements with certain state agencies, such as the registry of motor vehicles and MassHealth, to serve as "automatic voter registration agencies." These agencies must transmit voter registration information to local election officials, who will then add eligible individuals to the voter rolls unless they decline registration. The bill also requires the state secretary to adopt regulations to ensure the security and privacy of the information collected and used for automatic voter registration.
