The resolution H.C.R. 2001 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution that would establish stricter voting requirements. It mandates that only U.S. citizens can register and vote in Arizona elections, and requires all voters to present valid government-issued identification before casting their ballots. Additionally, the resolution prohibits foreign nationals from contributing to or influencing elections in Arizona. It also outlines provisions for early voting, stating that it must conclude by 7:00 PM on the Friday before the election, while allowing mail-in ballots to be accepted until polls close on election day.
Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes that all qualified voters should have the option to receive mail-in ballots, contingent upon their prior request and proof of citizenship at the time of registration. It includes a severability clause, ensuring that if any part of the amendment is deemed invalid, the remaining provisions will still be enforceable. The amendment is referred to as "The Arizona Secure Elections Act" and will be submitted to voters for approval in the next general election.
