One of the stated priorities for Coto, as chairman of the Latino Legislative Caucus, is to boost voter registration among the hundreds of thousands of Latinos in California who are citizens and eligible to vote.

But a number of conditions included in the bill's language, including "tolling" rules that would have caused the payment clock to stop in a number of situations, caused opposition to balk at its acceptance.
