Gov. Josh Shapiro Announces that Pennsylvania Is Now an Automatic Voter Registration State

EXCERPT:

SHAPIRO: "Pennsylvania: It is national voter registration day. And today, I am proud to announce that for the first time ever Pennsylvania is an automatic voter registration state. That's right: From now on when you get or renew your driver's license or an ID card at the DMV, you'll be registered to vote unless you choose not to. I made a commitment when I was campaigning for this office that we would bring automatic voter registration in Pennsylvania and break down the barriers for legal, eligible voters. This is a key step to make our elections more secure, adding important levels of verification to the voter registration process.”
