This bill seeks to prohibit individuals who are not citizens of the United States from voting in any election within the District of Columbia. This prohibition would apply to elections for public office, as well as any ballot initiatives or referenda held in D.C. A central provision of this legislation is the repeal of the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022 (D.C. Law 24-242). By repealing this Act, the bill aims to restore or revive any provisions of law that were previously amended or repealed by the 2022 Act, effectively reverting the District's voting eligibility rules to their prior state.
