The bill introduces a new section to the Election Code that prohibits the Secretary of State or a county clerk from sending notifications regarding eligibility or potential eligibility to register to vote to individuals who are not citizens of the United States. This includes both individual notifications and notifications sent to groups that contain non-citizens.
The effective date for the provisions of this act is set for July 1, 2025. This legislation aims to ensure that only eligible citizens receive information related to voter registration, thereby reinforcing the integrity of the electoral process in New Mexico.
