198 House Democrats voted against the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which requires individuals to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections. The only logical reason for Far Left Democrats to vote against the SAVE Act is that they want the millions of illegal immigrants they let into our country with their failed open borders agenda to vote in our elections in a desperate attempt to maintain their grip on power.
Today’s vote is also just the latest example of Far Left House Democrats having the opportunity to end the Biden border crisis and electing to allow the historic invasion that jeopardizes the safety and security of every American to continue.
FAR LEFT HOUSE DEMOCRATS' HISTORY OF VOTING TO SUPPORT THE BIDEN BORDER CRISIS:
In May 2023, 211 Democrats voted against H.R. 2 which is the strongest border security bill in American history and would have ended the Biden border crisis.
In July 2023, 201 Democrats voted against a bill to prohibit public elementary schools from being used to house illegal immigrants.
In September 2023, 208 Democrats voted against a bill to prioritize investments to secure the border, protect CBP agents and officers on the frontline, and remove dangerous criminals from our homeland.
In November 2023, 203 Democrats voted against prohibiting funds from being used to provide housing for illegal immigrants on federal lands.
In January 2024, 154 Democrats voted against imposing criminal penalties on individuals who evade US border patrol agents.
In January 2024, 187 Democrats voted against a resolution urging President Biden to end his failed Far Left Democrat open borders agenda.
In February 2024, 150 Democrats voted against deporting convicted illegal immigrants who have committed an offense while driving under the influence.
In March 2024, 170 Democrats voted against requiring the DHS to take into custody illegal immigrants being charged with, arrested for, or convicted of theft offenses.
In May 2024, 148 Democrats voted against a bill to detain and deport illegal immigrants who assault law enforcement officers.
In June 2024, 197 Democrats voted against a bill to fund the security of our homeland.
FACTS ABOUT THE SAVE ACT (Courtesy of Speaker Mike Johnson):
While falsely claiming the 2016 was “stolen” due to “foreign election interference,” Democrats ignore the real threat of foreign election interference posed when noncitizens are allowed to register and vote in U.S. elections.
Lax voter registration laws make it possible for noncitizens to register and vote in federal elections while campaign finance loopholes allow noncitizens to fund U.S. election activities – both of which can affect the outcome of our elections.
There is ample evidence that noncitizens are voting in U.S. elections:
A 2014 study that analyzed the 2008 and 2010 elections concluded that not only had noncitizens illegally voted in U.S. elections but also that the votes of noncitizens likely determined the outcome in certain races.
In states like Massachusetts, Ohio, and Virginia, noncitizens have recently been removed from the voting rolls, and many of those noncitizens had voted.
The Arizona Secretary of State website is currently falsely promoting the idea that individuals who fail to present proof of citizenship when registering will “be eligible to vote in federal elections.”
Recently, the House Committee on Administration reported the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, H.R. 8281, will:
Require an individual to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections; and
Provide states with access to existing federal databases so they can clean up their voter registration rolls and remove noncitizens from the rolls.
Congress must pass the SAVE Act to close the loopholes that allow noncitizen registration and, in turn, voting; to enhance election security; minimize the risk of foreign interference; and restore Americans’ confidence in U.S. elections
