Elections: voters; state voting rights act; create. Creates new act & repeals 1969 PA 161 (MCL 691.1031). TIE BAR WITH: SB 0962'26, SB 0963'26, SB 0964'26
This bill creates a state voting rights act to protect the right to vote for all eligible citizens, especially members of racial, color, or language minority groups. It prohibits state and local governments from taking actions that result in unequal voter participation or impair the ability of protected classes to elect their chosen candidates. The bill outlines specific actions that would violate these protections, such as closing polling places without a compelling reason or using election methods that dilute the votes of minority groups.
