Voting Rights Lab

Last updated

Voting Rights Lab is a nonpartisan [1] 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that tracks election legislation [2] [3] and supports expanding access to voting. [4]

Contents

The organization monitors laws such as the passing of protections for election workers [5] and rules whose stated intent is to prevent noncitizen voting. [3] The group also groups laws into categories such as 'expand voting rights' and 'restrict voting rights'. [4] The organization put together a summary of election rule changes in the seven swing states ahead of the 2024 presidential election. [2] They found that Michigan and Nevada expanded access to voting, Arizona and Pennsylvania were mixed and Georgia, North Carolina and Wisconsin restricted voting access. [2]
