Only One House Democrat Voted In Favor of Voter ID to Prove Citizenship in US Elections
Only one House Democrat voted in favor of legislation that would require voter ID to prove citizenship in elections. The U.S. House of Representatives was able to pass the election integrity bill, despite opposition from all but one Democrat — a stark reminder why maintaining a majority in Congress is crucial for Republicans in today’s polarized political climate.
Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX)’s SAVE America Act, which seeks to keep non-citizens from voting in U.S. federal elections, passed 218 to 213 by the House of Representatives on Wednesday, and could go into effect as early as this November, according to a report by Fox News.
The only House Democrat who did not vote against the election integrity initiative was Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX).
The bill is an updated version of the initial Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which was never taken up in the Senate after being passed by the House in April last year.
In addition to requiring photo ID to vote in federal elections, the new version of the legislation also aims to establish a federal proof of citizenship requirement in the voter registration process, as well as mandate that states maintain voter rolls purged of ineligible individuals.
Of course Democrats did this
(Dallas Express) A Pew Research Center survey found that 83% of Americans favor requiring government-issued photo ID to vote, with 95% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats in agreement; only 16% oppose it.
Gallup polling indicated 84% support for photo ID requirements, including 98% of Republicans, 84% of independents, and 67% of Democrats. Separately, 83% back proof of citizenship for first-time voter registration.
Additional surveys from Napolitan News Service and The Center Square also reflect strong backing, according to the White House.
CNN reporter Harry Enten was quoted as saying, “The bottom line is this: Voter ID is NOT controversial in this country. A photo ID to vote is NOT controversial in this country. It is not controversial by party and it is not controversial by race. The vast majority of Americans agree.”
Oh, but, it gets more funny
Why, exactly, do Democrats not want people to identify who they are when voting?
I’m also betting if Republicans can get it passed in the Senate the Usual Liberal Groups will sue, involving friendly judges.
The objective is to Suppress, not Save the vote. How so?
Dem voters are more unlikely to have access to “Your Papers” to “prove” their citizenship. A copy of your birth certificate from your state costs about $25. And naturalization papers? Birth certificates do not register name changes – hello married women!
Research shows that more than 21 million Americans lack ready access to those documents.
Some 9% of Americans move every year and don’t update their driver’s licenses.
MAGA wants chaos before the mid-terms.
Is vote cheating a problem? There is no verifiable evidence to support that hypothesis. Trump losing is not very solid evidence!
Do Senate Republicans have 60 votes. Highly unlikely! You need to pressure your Dem Senators to Suppress the vote, otherwise the Dems will win the House and Senate next Nov. It’s a heavy lift!
Funny, most countries of the western world require an ID to vote or to register to vote including those right wing countries of France, UK, Spain, Denmark, Canada, Sweden, Ireland, Germany, Japan, Italy, Iceland, New Zealand, Finland, Australia, Netherlands, Brazil, Poland, Austria, Luxembourg, Portugal, Czech Republic, Greece, Belgium, India, Jamaica, South Africa, South Korea, Israel, Ukraine, Bolivia, ect., totaling just under 120 countries. So they’re trying to “suppress the vote”, too? Got it
