Biden Administration Opposes SAVE Act (H.R. 8281) Requiring Proof of Citizenship to Vote
Jul 8, 2024, 09:22 PM
The Biden administration has officially opposed the SAVE Act (H.R. 8281), a Republican bill that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections. The administration argues that it is already illegal for noncitizens to vote and that states already verify voter eligibility, adding that the bill would make it harder for Americans to vote. Critics, primarily from the Republican Party, assert that the opposition to the bill is driven by a desire to allow illegal immigrants to vote, which they claim would benefit Democrats in elections. The bill, formally known as the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, aims to ensure that only U.S. citizens can participate in federal elections by mandating citizenship documentation during voter registration. The White House's stance has sparked significant controversy, with many Republicans urging Congress to pass the bill to protect the integrity of American elections. This comes amid claims that the Biden administration has allowed over 10 million illegal immigrants into the country.
