Since this hearing makes it hard to dive into the details of the bills, we'll do it here, starting w/ #SB1340. It proposes major changes to the voter list maintenance process w/ discriminatory registration guidelines aimed at discouraging people of color & immigrants from voting.
#SB1340 would make the Secretary of State, not local registrars, the primary manager of the voter registration process, giving the person in this position *unchecked power* to deny people the right to vote based on their race and immigration status.
#SB1340 would require most Texans registering to vote to first have their citizenship verified by the Secretary of State, violating the federal mandate that voters must be able to register up to 30 days before an election.
