The bill amends Sections 17-3-2, 17-3-5, and 17-3-8 of the Code of Alabama 1975, focusing on the qualifications and structure of the boards of registrars. Key changes include replacing the term "persons" with "individuals" in the appointment process and requiring the state board of appointment to consider the racial, gender, urban, rural, and economic diversity of the county when making appointments after October 1, 2025. The qualifications for registrars have been updated to emphasize excellent communication skills, proficiency in data processing, and the ability to operate office equipment, while previous requirements related to computer and map reading skills have been removed. Additionally, the daily salary for registrars is increased from $80 to $115, and the reimbursement process for travel expenses is clarified.

The bill also modifies the working days for registrars in various counties, establishing maximum working days for specific counties and allowing registrars in others to meet up to five days a week. It specifies that the 60 additional working days for registrars in Lawrence County, as established by Act 2023-456, will be funded by the county commission without state reimbursement. Furthermore, it mandates that on designated working days, the board of registrars must be open during the same hours as the county courthouse or establish regular hours for public access. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2025.
