The bill proposed by N. Hastings aims to revise the laws governing motor vehicle records to allow local government elections officials access to specific personal information for the purpose of verifying voter registration information. This change is intended to enhance the accuracy and integrity of voter registration processes by ensuring that officials can confirm the identity and eligibility of voters using data from motor vehicle records.

To implement this change, the bill amends Section 61-11-508 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA). While the specific insertions and deletions in the legal language are not detailed in the summary, the bill emphasizes the importance of providing local elections officials with the necessary tools to maintain accurate voter rolls. Additionally, the bill includes a provision for an immediate effective date, indicating that the changes will take effect as soon as the bill is enacted.
