This bill prohibits states and local jurisdictions from hiring non-U.S. citizens to administer elections for federal office, such as elections for president, Congress, and other federal positions. The requirement would apply immediately upon the bill's enactment to all federal elections held afterward. The legislation does not include any funding provisions or create new federal agencies, instead placing compliance responsibilities directly on state and local election officials. The bill affects election administrators and election management personnel in every state and locality that conduct federal elections. There are no specified timelines beyond the immediate effective date, meaning states and localities would need to ensure compliance for their next federal election after the law passes.
