In June 2017, Rep. Robert Brady introduced a bill to automatically register eligible citizens to vote in federal elections when they interact with numerous state and federal government agencies; Sens. Patrick Leahy, Amy Klobuchar, and Dick Durbin
cosponsored identical legislation in the Senate.
APhA and the PAPCC led a campaign in support of
identical legislation introduced in the last session of Congress, which resulted in 296
cosponsors of H.R. 592 and 51
cosponsors of the Senate's companion bill, S. 314.
