This resolution designates September 2026 as "National Voting Rights Month" to raise awareness about voting rights and encourage voter participation. The resolution reflects concerns about voting access, highlighting historical voter suppression tactics and current restrictions that the sponsors argue disproportionately affect minorities, elderly people, and people with disabilities. The resolution encourages Congress to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to strengthen protections under the original Voting Rights Act and opposes the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which the sponsors contend would prevent millions from voting. It also recommends that schools and universities teach students about voting rights history and current voting restrictions, and calls for Congress to fund public service announcements to inform citizens about elections and voter registration deadlines. This is a non-binding resolution with no direct funding allocated, serving primarily to express the Senate's position on voting rights issues.
