The bill amends the Election Code to clarify procedures for accepting voters with outdated residence addresses and to expedite the effectiveness of voter registration changes. Specifically, it modifies Section 15.025(a) to state that a voter's registration change becomes effective 30 days after the registrar receives a notice of change or a statement of residence. Additionally, it amends Sections 63.0011(b) and (c) to allow voters who have changed their residence within the same county to vote in their registered precinct, provided they meet certain residency requirements related to the political subdivision or territory of the election.

Furthermore, the bill removes the requirement for voters to request a change of registration address when submitting a statement to an election officer, streamlining the voting process for those with non-current addresses. The changes will only apply to notices of address changes submitted after the bill's effective date, which can be immediate if it receives a two-thirds majority vote in both houses, or otherwise will take effect 91 days after the legislative session concludes.
