Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025

This bill requires people to show documents proving they are U.S. citizens when they register to vote in federal elections, and to show a photo ID when they vote. Acceptable proof of citizenship includes things like a valid U.S. passport, a REAL ID that shows citizenship, or a government photo ID showing a U.S. birthplace. States would also be required to take ongoing steps to make sure only U.S. citizens are on their voter rolls, including checking their voter lists against a federal immigration database and removing anyone found to be a noncitizen. People voting by mail or other non-in-person methods would generally need to include a copy of their photo ID or provide the last four digits of their Social Security number with a sworn statement, and the bill sets up rules for provisional ballots, criminal penalties for certain violations, and exceptions for overseas military voters and people with disabilities.
