House Passes SAVE Act Requiring Proof of Citizenship to Vote in Federal Elections

📝 DESCRIPTION
Trump applauds as the House passes a bill requiring proof of US citizenship to vote in federal elections, marking a major moment in the fight over election integrity. In a 220-208 vote, the SAVE Act—formally known as the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act—was passed with support from all present Republicans and four Democrats. The bill mandates that individuals must present documentary proof of citizenship such as a passport, birth certificate, or military ID to register to vote in federal elections. Supporters, including Rep. Chip Roy and President Trump, say it’s a critical measure to prevent noncitizen voting. Critics argue the bill is redundant and may disenfranchise millions of legal voters—especially married women whose birth certificates no longer match their legal name. With a 53-47 GOP Senate majority, all eyes now turn to whether this bill can survive the Senate. Is this a win for democracy or a threat to voter access? Let’s break it all down.
