Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs
The Citizen Ballot Protection Act amends the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to permit states to require proof of citizenship on mail voter registration forms. Currently, the NVRA provides a standard federal form that does not require proof of citizenship. This bill would allow states to add this requirement to their state-specific forms, giving states more flexibility in verifying voter eligibility.
