Critics have raised concerns that Trump’s push for stricter voter ID rules in a country where nearly half of residents do not own passports could be an attempt to meddle in the 2026 midterms, where Republicans are widely expected to suffer heavy losses.On Monday, Trump urged Republicans to work through the upcoming Easter recess to pass the SAVE Act. “You don’t have to take a fast vote. Don’t worry about Easter, going home. In fact, make this one for Jesus,” TrumpTrump has become obsessed with the idea that non-U.S. citizens vote in elections, despite there being hardly any examples of it actually occurringjust 15 instances of non-U.S. citizens voting in the 2024 presidential election, which amounts to just 0.00028 percent of the more than 5.7 million ballots cast.Meanwhile, the Trump administration has also faced widespread criticism for the aggressive tactics used by ICE while carrying out the president’s hardline immigration and deportation policies.across the country to help deal with long lines and hours-long wait times as thousands of unpaid Transportation Security Administration employees call out from work during a partial government shutdown.
