If this bill were to become law, it would amend current statutes by adding a new requirement for any nongovernmental person or entity that mails or hand delivers election-related documents. Specifically, it would mandate that these documents, which include voter registration applications and early ballot requests, must have the phrase "Not From a Government Agency" printed in bold and clearly legible text on the outside of the envelope. This insertion aims to clarify the source of the documents to recipients.

The bill would also introduce a new section, 16-146, to Title 16, Chapter 1, Article 3 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to registration officers and procedures. This addition would formalize the requirement for the labeling of election-related documents, thereby enhancing transparency and helping to prevent confusion among voters regarding the origin of such materials. The current law remains unchanged aside from these specific insertions.
