Assessments

delivered same_term A for effort

Hirono fulfilled the specific promise to support the Right to Vote Act by serving as an original cosponsor of S.1, the Freedom to Vote Act, on July 25, 2023. The bill text included the named Right to Vote Act provisions creating an affirmative federal right to vote in federal elections, restricting undue ballot-access burdens, and authorizing civil actions by affected voters or the Attorney General. The bill did not become law, so the statutory policy outcome was not enacted, but the campaign commitment was framed as support for the Act rather than a guarantee of passage.
