Rep. Jennifer McClellan (D-VA) says Republican proposed SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility) legislation that would require proof of citizenship in order to vote is the same thing racist segregation laws:

"This bill is essentially a poll tax, because I am not aware of a single proof of citizenship document that does not cost an individual money to get it, unless we are requiring every state to provide one for free. And then it's an unfunded mandate. This is the 2024 version of the Jim Crow poll tax, and we should vote against it."
