This bill addresses the highly partisan issue of non-citizen voting and requires sharing sensitive voter data with the federal government, which faces strong opposition from the other party.

Key Points

This bill offers extra money to states to help them run and secure federal elections. To get the cash, states must share their full lists of registered voters with the Department of Homeland Security.
The Department of Homeland Security would use these lists to check if any non-citizens are registered to vote. They would do this by comparing voter names against a federal database that tracks immigration status.
States that agree to this deal could receive a 10 percent bonus on top of the election security grants they already get from the federal government. A total of $20 million is set aside for these bonuses.
Participating states would have to send their updated voter lists to the federal government at least four times a year starting in late 2026. This information would be used to identify people on the rolls who are not U.S. citizens.
