The House of Representatives passed a measure that would require proof of citizenship to register to vote, an effort to put into law one of Donald Trump’s executive orders targeting elections.
The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE Act, passed by a vote of 220-208, with four Democratic members joining all Republicans present on Thursday.
The bill sponsored by Republican Rep. Chip Roy proposes amending the National Voter Registration Act to require states to obtain proof of citizenship in person from people who are registering to vote or updating their voter registration.
Voting rights advocates have warned that the measure, if passed into law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters who do not have easy access to identification documents, and would upend how states register people to vote online or through automatic or same-day registration.
House Rep. Joe Morelle, the top Democrat on the Committee on House Administration, which oversees federal election administration, called the SAVE Act “one of the most damaging voter suppression bills in modern history.”
Comment:
Voter Fraud is a Voting Rights violation.
How are people registering to vote without proving who they are, or that they are a citizen?
If people are being allowed to register to vote without showing an ID, then it means that they can register to vote under multiple alias names.
So, if they did have an ID when they registered to vote, then why don't they have that same ID when they go to the polls to cast their ballot?
The Democrat opposition to Voter ID is proof that they are committing voter fraud and violating everyone's Right to Vote.
