Further, DOJ must establish and operate a toll-free telephone service through which individuals may (1) connect directly to the state-based response system; (2) obtain information on voting in federal elections; and (3) report information to DOJ on problems encountered in registering to vote or voting, including incidences of voter intimidation or suppression. Additionally, the bill establishes the Voter Hotline Task Force to provide ongoing analysis and assessment of the telephone service.
