Summary

The bill makes a jury commissioner report any prospective juror who swears they are not a U.S. citizen or not a county resident—facts that also disqualify them from voting. County election officials must then verify the person's voting eligibility, inactivate the registration and give the person a chance to confirm eligibility, or cancel it after 15 days. If the juror is a registered voter but lives in a different county, the election official must update the voter’s address.
