This bill aims to prevent individuals who are not citizens of the United States from participating in any elections within the District of Columbia. This prohibition would apply to voting for public office as well as ballot initiatives and referenda, ensuring that only U.S. citizens can cast ballots in D.C. A key provision of the bill is the explicit repeal of the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022 (D.C. Law 24-242). By repealing this Act, the bill seeks to reverse the District of Columbia's allowance for non-citizen voting and restore prior voter eligibility requirements. Consequently, any provisions of law that were amended or repealed by the 2022 Act would be revived as if the Act had never been enacted.
