Inserts a new section (designated 303A) after section 303 of Title III of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 establishing a requirement that individuals present government photo identification and proof of United States citizenship to vote in Federal elections (with definitions and provisional ballot rules).
Makes conforming changes to section 303 of the Help America Vote Act of 2002: updates the heading, removes certain paragraphs in subsection (b) and redesignates remaining paragraphs, and adjusts a cross-reference in subsection (c).
Modifies section 401 of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 by replacing a list of statutory sections with a reference to 'subtitle A of title III' for the purposes of enforcement provisions.
Amends section 12(2) of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 by inserting new prohibited conduct subparagraphs related to assisting noncitizens to vote and providing ballots to individuals who fail to present government photo identification and proof of U.S. citizenship; also redesignates the former subparagraph (B) as (D) and adjusts punctuation.
Amends multiple subsections of 13 U.S.C. 141: replaces the first sentence of subsection (a); alters timing language in subsection (d) to a schedule tied to 5 years after a decennial census and every 10 years thereafter; redesignates subsection (g) as subsection (h); and inserts a new subsection (g) requiring a citizenship checkbox or similar option on questionnaires for respondents and household members.
Amends subsection (a) of 2 U.S.C. 2a to exclude noncitizens from the number of persons used to determine apportionment of Representatives and number of electoral votes.
This bill would change how the national population count is done. It would shift the timing of the 10-year census, count only citizens in that census, and use that citizen count to decide how many seats each state gets in the U.S. House of Representatives.
It also includes a section about rules for statewide, computerized voter registration lists, though the provided text does not include details on what those changes are.
