Senate Democrats are making a push to give undocumented immigrants the opportunity to vote in school board elections.
The proposal could require the State Board of Education to create an affidavit helping non-citizens register for school board elections.

They must also live within the boundaries of a school district and intent to stay there until the next school board election.
