Dems Lead Effort To Block Election Bill Requiring Proof Of Citizenship To Vote
As the country has been flooded with millions of illegal immigrants under the Biden administration, Republicans have voiced concerns about election integrity, arguing that measures should be put in place to ensure that only American citizens are voting. However, House Democrats have spearheaded an effort to vote against a GOP-led election bill that would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections.
House Republicans introduced the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, also known as the SAVE Act, that would amend the National Voter Registration Act to require states to obtain proof of citizenship from voters for federal elections. The bill would further purge noncitizens from voter rolls. Democrats have argued that trying to ensure that noncitizens don’t infringe upon a right exclusively granted to U.S. citizens would place “an extreme burden [on] countless Americans.”
Anyone know what kind of burden?
