The House of Representatives approved a bill on Wednesday, aimed at ensuring only American citizens vote in federal elections. After debating the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act on the House floor, which was pushed by House speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, was passed by a final vote of 221-198. Five Democrats voted in favor of the measure, including Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas; Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, D-Texas; Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine; Rep. Don Davis, D-N.C.
The SAVE Act will safeguard our elections by ensuring only American citizens vote in federal elections,' the House speaker said before continuing with a series of posts that explained what the legislation does. According to Johnson, the bill requires state election officials to ask about citizenship before providing applicants with voter registration forms.
Tea Party Patriots Action strongly supports the SAVE Act because it would bolster the integrity of our country's federal elections by closing the loopholes that allow noncitizens to register and vote,' the group said. 'This legislation would represent a step forward in upholding the sanctity of our democratic process and ensuring that every vote cast in our federal elections is done so only by American citizens.
