选举现代化联盟关于同日登记的声明
即将提交议会审议的法案只进入了红区，因为一项关键条款——当天选民登记——在委员会中被删除。为了给联邦人民带来好处，立法者需要支持一项修正案，将当天登记重新纳入法案。
The Election Modernization Coalition is grateful to the leadership of the Massachusetts House of Representatives for scheduling a vote on the VOTES Act for Thursday, Jan 27. However, the bill that’s coming to the floor only got to the red zone, because a key provision – Same-Day Voter Registration – was dropped in Committee.
To score a touchdown for the people of the Commonwealth, legislators need to support an amendment that puts same day registration back into the bill. In order to increase equity in voting access, especially for low-income voters and people of color, and catch up with 20 other states, members of the House should not fumble this opportunity to establish Same-Day Voter Registration in MA.
