Sen. Mike Lee Pushes Voter ID Bill Despite Lack of Evidence

The SAVE Act aims to require proof of citizenship for voter registration, but critics argue it's based on unproven claims about noncitizen voting.

  • Sen. Mike Lee and other Republicans promote the SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship to register for federal elections.
  • The bill mandates states to remove noncitizens from voter rolls and requires documentation for voter registration.
  • Critics argue the bill addresses a non-existent problem, citing a lack of evidence for widespread noncitizen voting.
  • Studies show minimal incidents of noncitizen voting, challenging the bill's justification.
  • Opponents believe the bill could disenfranchise eligible voters lacking necessary documentation.
