To amend the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to prohibit the use of Federal funds for election administration in States that permit ballot harvesting.

Limits on third-party ballot collection

This bill would withhold federal Help America Vote Act funds from any State unless the State bans knowingly collecting and delivering a mailed federal ballot for another person. A State could keep HAVA money only if its law bans third-party collection, with four exceptions: election officials doing official duties; USPS or other carriers acting as authorized; other people otherwise authorized to handle U.S. mail while on duty; and a family member, household member, or caregiver of the voter. The bill would define family member, household member (someone who lives with the voter), and caregiver (someone who provides medical or health care in a residence or care facility). The condition would apply notwithstanding other law and would take effect upon enactment.
