S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 7052 2023-2024 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y May 10, 2023 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. SILLITTI -- read once and referred to the Commit- tee on Election Law AN ACT to amend the election law and the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to joining multistate voter list maintenance organizations THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. A multistate voter list maintenance organization is a coordinating entity between the states that aids them in removing ineligible voters from their voter rolls. The Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is a public charity non-profit membership organization comprising 32 states and the District of Columbia. ERIC's purpose is to assist states in improving the accura- cy of America's voter rolls and increasing access to voter registration for all eligible citizens. Keeping voter rolls up to date is a challenge because, every day, voters move or pass away. Voters don't always remem- ber to update their registration. At least every 60 days, each member submits their voter registration data and licensing and identification data from departments of motor vehicles (DMV) to ERIC. ERIC refers to this data as Member Data. ERIC's technical staff uses sophisticated data matching software to compare Member Data from all member states, some- times with data from other sources, to create the following four "list maintenance" reports. (1) Cross-State Movers Report: Identifies voters who appear to have moved from one ERIC state to another using voter registration data and DMV data; (2) In-State Movers Report: Identifies voters who appear to have moved within the state using voter registra- tion and department of motor vehicle data; (3) Duplicate Report: Iden- tifies voters with duplicate registrations in the same state using voter registration data; and (4) Deceased Report: Identifies voters who have died using voter registration data and Social Security death data known as the Limited Access Death Master File. As the official record of all eligible voters in a state, a state's voter registration rolls are the EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.

SILLITTI -- read once and referred to the Commit- tee on Election Law -- committee discharged, bill amended, ordered reprinted as amended and recommitted to said committee -- again reported from said committee with amendments, ordered reprinted as amended and recommitted to said committee AN ACT to amend the election law and the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to joining multistate voter list maintenance organizations THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. As the official record of all eligible voters in a state, a state's voter registration rolls are the foundation of free, fair, and accurate elections. Illegal voting is exceedingly rare but maintaining accurate voter rolls reduces the oppor- tunity for such behavior and it helps build confidence in election outcomes. However, keeping voter rolls up to date is a challenge because, every day, voters move or die. Voters do not always remember to update their registration when they move. These challenges are especial- ly acute in states with large and highly mobile populations. Partic- ipation in a multistate voter list maintenance organization can improve the accuracy of New York's voter registration rolls. A multistate voter list maintenance organization is a coordinating entity between states that aids them in identifying voters who may no longer be eligible to vote, who have moved, or who have died. A voter list maintenance organ- ization may also offer other information useful to improving voter registration or enhancing the integrity of election administration. § 2. Article 5 of the election law is amended by adding a new title 10 to read as follows: TITLE X MULTISTATE VOTER LIST MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION MEMBERSHIP AUTHORIZATION SECTION 5-1000. JOINING A MULTISTATE VOTER LIST MAINTENANCE ORGANIZA- TION. 5-1001. DESIGNATING MEMBER REPRESENTATIVES. 5-1002. AUTHORIZATION TO SHARE REGISTRATION RECORDS WITH MULTI- STATE VOTER LIST MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION.
