Protecting the right to vote It is the sense of the House of Representatives that— (1) Congress has the power to prohibit voter suppression activities; (2) in order to increase voter access and participation, Congress should require every State to create and maintain an online voter registration system and to automatically register eligible voters whose information is contained in the State’s motor vehicle license registration system (with a 21-day opt-out period for those who wish to be taken off the registry); and (3) Congress should make Election Day a legal public holiday.
