What the document says

“shall not apply with respect to the development or modification of voter registration materials under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (52 U.S.C. 20501 et seq.), as amended by section 2, including the development or modification of any voter registration application forms.”

Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, Sec. 4

The Paperwork Reduction Act normally requires review and public comment before a federal agency collects information from the public. This section removes that step for the voter registration materials this Act requires.

What the document actually says

“shall not apply with respect to the development or modification of voter registration materials under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (52 U.S.C. 20501 et seq.), as amended by section 2, including the development or modification of any voter registration application forms.”

Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, Sec. 4
That sentence, in plain words

That old law does not apply here. It does not cover new voter forms. It does not cover changes to them.

What this is about

One law makes agencies get review before asking the public for information. It takes time and lets people comment. This bill says that law does not apply here. New sign-up forms can be made without that step.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

The provision switching off the Paperwork Reduction Act for this work.

Nothing else.
