To repeal the National Voter Registration Act of 1993.

# HR 55 Summary **What the bill would do:** HR 55 would repeal the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993, a federal law that set minimum voter registration requirements across all states. Most notably, the NVRA currently requires states to allow people to register to vote when they apply for a driver's license or interact with certain government agencies. If passed, this bill would eliminate these federal requirements, giving states complete control over their own voter registration processes. **Who it affects:** This would primarily affect voters and state election officials. Citizens could lose the automatic voter registration opportunities currently available at DMVs and other government offices in many states.

States would have the flexibility to set their own registration rules without federal standards, which could make registration easier in some states and more difficult in others, depending on each state's chosen policies. **Current status:** The bill is currently in committee as of the 119th Congress. It has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House. The bill was introduced by Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ).
