In the near future, I will be reintroducing legislation requiring an individual to provide proof of U.S. citizenship prior to registering to vote.
 
Free and fair elections are the backbone of our republic and it is paramount that we do all we can to protect our elections and secure the integrity of our election administration. This includes ensuring that only qualified electors are registered to vote.
 
My legislation would amend our Commonwealth’s voter registration process by requiring an individual present proof of their U.S. citizenship prior to registering to vote. This legislation is based upon a similar initiative working its way through Congress and provides numerous options for proof of U.S. citizenship.
 
Please join me in cosponsoring this legislation.
