Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) introduced the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE Act).
The bill amends the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, requiring voters to show documentary proof of United States citizenship in order to vote in federal elections. Currently, states can only require proof of citizenship for registering to vote in local and state elections.
The SAVE Act is scheduled for a vote next week.
Of course, Democrats are attempting to block the bill, as they have always intended to allow the millions of illegal aliens who have invaded the United States to vote in the upcoming election.
The Epoch Times reported:
Under the measure, introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), potential voters would have to provide “documentary proof of United States citizenship” to cast ballots in federal elections, including for president.
To register to vote in the elections, one would need to present identification that could include a passport, photo ID card that shows that the voter was born in the United States, or another form of photo ID along with documents that show that the person was born in the United States, including a birth certificate, according to the text of the proposed bill.
Aside from the identification requirements, the law would mandate that noncitizens be removed from voter registration rolls. Election officials would also have to ask for proof of U.S. citizenship and warn of the consequences if they aren’t citizens before providing voter registration forms.
The law would also direct the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees multiple immigration agencies, to determine if officials should initiate deportation proceedings if a noncitizen was identified as being registered to vote in federal elections, according to the text.
President Trump is calling on Republicans to pass the bill.
In a post on Truth Social, President Trump called on GOP lawyers to sue to stop illegals from voting and Democrats from cheating in another presidential election.
Take a look:
Republicans must pass the Save Act, or go home and cry yourself to sleep. Non citizen Illegal Migrants are getting the right to vote, being pushed by crooked Democrat Politicians who are not being stopped by an equally dishonest Justice Department. Our whole voting system is under siege. Harmeet and David, go to court and get this stopped, NOW. The Dems can’t win on their policies, the only way they can win is to CHEAT. They do it at every level of government, and they do it well. That’s how they get an incapacitated moron like Joe Biden elected. Get tough RNC (Michael W!), Speaker Johnson, and all State and Local Republican politicians. The Justice Department is CORRUPT and won’t do a thing to help. They have no shame! All I can say is that if I’m elected President, we will pursue Election Fraudsters at levels never seen before, and they will be sent to prison for long periods of time. We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!
The legislation is expected to be dead on arrival in the Senate. However, this hasn’t stopped House Democrats and the Biden regime from speaking out against it and spreading their lies to the American public to cause confusion so they can continue to allow illegal aliens to vote in our federal elections.
“This bill would do nothing to safeguard our elections, but it would make it much harder for all eligible Americans to register to vote and increase the risk that eligible voters are purged from voter rolls,” said a statement from the White House, adding “It is extraordinarily rare for noncitizens to break the law by voting in Federal elections.”
The regime says they will veto the Save Act, which would require documentation of US citizenship in order to vote.

Such an easy concept, yet they’re adamantly against it!
For 3 years we’ve been invaded by millions of criminal illegals! All on purpose for this very reason!… pic.twitter.com/AQQx39cwSD
Speaker Mike Johnson responded on X, saying, “It should alarm every American citizen that the sitting President of the United States, who has opened our border to over 9 million illegals, just announced that he would veto our bill to prevent noncitizens from voting.”

Watch:
Democrats have tried to mislead the American people about our efforts to prevent noncitizens from voting.

Why? Because they want illegals to vote in our elections.
We must protect American elections by passing @chiproytx‘s SAVE Act. pic.twitter.com/aKiI6Ldi6Q
