The proposed bill, SB1116, seeks to amend Arizona's voter registration laws by explicitly prohibiting any person from paying or receiving money or any other form of value based on the number of voter registration forms that are collected, completed, or submitted. This change aims to ensure the integrity of the voter registration process by eliminating potential financial incentives that could lead to unethical practices in voter registration activities.

Currently, there are no specific prohibitions against such payments in the existing law. The new bill would add a clear restriction to the Arizona Revised Statutes, thereby reinforcing the principle that voter registration should be conducted without financial motivation. The bill is set to take effect on the general effective date, with no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund.
