AI Summary: This regulation establishes measures to enhance citizenship verification and integrity in Federal elections. It directs the Secretary of Homeland Security, in coordination with the Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, to compile and transmit State Citizenship Lists to chief election officials. These lists will identify U.S. citizens eligible to vote and will be derived from Federal citizenship and naturalization records, SSA data, and SAVE data. The regulation also mandates the Postmaster General to initiate rulemaking for the United States Postal Service (USPS) regarding mail-in and absentee ballots, requiring unique identifiers like barcodes on ballot envelopes for tracking and ensuring only eligible voters receive ballots. Furthermore, it directs the Attorney General to prioritize investigations and prosecutions related to election fraud and the unlawful issuance or distribution of ballots to ineligible individuals. The goal is to prevent noncitizens from voting in Federal elections and to maintain public confidence in election outcomes by ensuring only eligible citizens cast ballots.
