Sponsored by August Pfluger (R)
To prohibit individuals who are not citizens of the United States from voting in elections in the District of Columbia and to repeal the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022
Would have barred noncitizens from voting in DC elections and repealed DC's 2022 law allowing it.
Tradeoff
Would have blocked noncitizens from voting in DC public office races and DC ballot measures. Would have repealed a 2022 DC law that let qualifying noncitizen residents vote in local elections.
