Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill creates new rules for certain local government areas in Washington, called "covered jurisdictions." These are areas that have previously violated voting rights laws. Before making changes to how they elect officials or draw district lines, these jurisdictions must get approval from the Attorney General. The Attorney General will review the proposed changes to ensure they don't unfairly affect protected voting groups.
