GOP Save Act that requires proof of citizenship to register to vote is being bucked by democrats, wonder why? Even SCOTUS has upheld you can't ask for proof of citizenship. That is insane with Biden's border security program.
Congressional Democrats insist that the SAVE Actâwhich requires proof of citizenship to establish eligibility to vote in federal electionsâis unnecessary because federal law (18 USC § 611) already prohibits non-citizens from voting in federal elections.
Those making this argument ignore a glaring problem: the government officials who register voters and conduct federal elections arenât allowed to require proof of citizenship.
Itâs therefore shockingly easy for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, leaving our elections dangerously vulnerable to foreign interference.Anyoneâeven an illegal alien or other non-citizenâcan register to vote in federal elections, just by checking a box and signing a form.
This is all on the honor system. No proof of citizenship is required.
Itâs not just that state officialsâwho are responsible for federal voter registration and elections in our countryâdonât verify citizenship in this context; itâs that the Supreme Court has told them that theyâre not allowed to do so.In Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council of Arizona, 570 U.S. 1 (2013), the Court held that the National Voter Registration Act (âNVRA,â known as the âMotor Voterâ law) prohibits states from requiring proof of citizenship when processing federal voter-registration forms.
The SAVE Act would fix this gaping loophole by requiring anyone registering to vote in federal elections to provide proof of citizenship.It would also require states to review existing federal voter-registration files and remove all non-citizens.Remember: every state except South Carolina issues driverâs licenses to non-citizens, and 19 states issue them to illegal aliens.
This, coupled with the Motor Voter law and the Supreme Courtâs ruling, makes it shockingly easy for aliensâlegal and illegalâto vote in federal elections, even though theyâre prohibited from doing so.Considering that there are now nearly 30 million non-citizens in the U.S., including about 12 million who have entered illegally since the last presidential election, we desperately need the SAVE Act.
While Democrats are already mocking the SAVE Act, they donât dispute that non-citizens shouldnât vote in federal elections.Rather, they insist that thereâs no need for the bill because non-citizensâbeing prohibited by law from voting in federal electionsâcategorically do not vote in such elections.
That argument fails for one simple reason: it implausibly assumes universal compliance with a law that has become breathtakingly easy (and correspondingly tempting) to violate.Some say that non-citizens wouldnât dare register to vote in federal elections, as doing so is illegal and could adversely affect their present or future immigration status.
Even if this assumption were correct with regard to many (or even most) non-citizens in the U.S., that still wouldnât disprove the need for the SAVE Act.If even a tiny percentage of Americaâs 30 million non-citizens were to vote, they could change the outcome of a close federal election.And, as noted by the
@I_A_Project, itâs odd for the left to insist so vehemently that illegal aliens donât vote, given that congressional
Democrats have inserted language âto waive inadmissibility for illegal voting in all [their] amnesty bills.
âDemocrats canât have it both ways; they canât (1) credibly say that illegal aliens donât vote in federal elections, and then (2) expect us to forget their own proposals, which assume the opposite is true.In any event, and regardless of how many (or few) non-citizens may have voted in the past, why not take steps to prevent it from happening in the future?
The sanctity of your vote is at stake.Now more than ever, we need to make sure that our elections are fair, lawfully conducted, and free of foreign influence.

Auto registration ??
States are required to separate citizen's DL, from non citizen DL, when they auto register them vote.
and yet it does happen take Oregon for example.
Yeah, they messed up, and didn't follow procedure...
Must be why they're finding and removing ineligible people already auto enrolled and if it wasn't checked into, would be able to vote.
