History

Historical Context

The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 aimed to simplify voter registration, requiring states to offer registration at public agencies, which led to a 25% increase in registered voters. This law followed decades of advocacy for voting rights, notably after the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Trump's recent push for nationalized voting procedures reflects ongoing debates about election integrity and federal oversight in the U.S.
