Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to prohibit voting in Federal, State, or local elections by individuals who are not citizens of the United States.

House Joint Resolution 40 proposes an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would strictly limit voting eligibility to United States citizens. If ratified, this amendment would establish a nationwide ban on noncitizens participating in any federal, state, or local election, as well as voting on ballot initiatives or referendums.

While federal law already prohibits noncitizens from voting in federal elections, this measure would extend that prohibition to all levels of government and prevent any local jurisdiction from granting voting rights to non-citizens. For the average citizen, this bill would standardize voter eligibility requirements across the country, ensuring that only those with U.S. citizenship can participate in any form of public election or policy vote.
