Why the model tagged it this way: The bill requires citizenship verification using DMV records and the federal SAVE program during voter registration and vote-by-mail requests, mandates marking noncitizen status on IDs (triggering provisional ballots), and requires referrals for suspected false affirmations, all expanding state immigration-enforcement cooperation to prevent noncitizen voting. No provisions address firearms, transgender issues, or abortion.
