Democrats even more desperate to allow illegal aliens to vote in presidential election as Joe Biden’s reelection odds collapse in the wake of his disastrous debate performance.
House Democrats are preparing to “bring out the big guns” this week in a bid to block a Republican-backed bill that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections, according to reports.
The House is set to vote next week on the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE Act, which would require “documentary proof of United States citizenship” to vote in federal elections that could include a photo ID, passport or birth certificate.
Of course, providing proof of citizenship would ruin designs by the Democrats to allow millions of illegal aliens to vote in the election, which is why they’re sounding the alarm to stop it.

From Axios:
In a whip question — a roundup of the coming week’s votes with instructions for how leadership wants rank-and-file members to vote — House Minority Whip Katherine Clark’s (D-Mass.) office told House Democrats they are “urged to VOTE NO” on the bill.
That means that Democratic leadership will send its whip team to cajole colleagues into not supporting the legislation.
The bill, Clark’s office said, would “prevent Americans from registering to vote with their drivers’ license alone” and would make a passport the “only acceptable standalone form of identification.”
They added that the bill would create an “extreme burden for countless Americans” and “further intimidate election officials and overburden states’ abilities to enroll new voters.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson released a 22-page report detailing how a “loophole” in current federal law only requires voters to attest to their citizenship status rather than being asked.
The loophole is similar to a speed limit sign: it’s illegal to drive over the limit, but plenty of drivers do so anyway with little to no consequences.
NRCC spokesperson Will Reinert said in response to the Axios report, “Joe Biden isn’t fit for office. Of course extreme House Democrats would want illegal migrants voting to boost their failing President.”
And many people online, including Tesla founder Elon Musk, are questioning the Democrats for appearing to advocate for making elections less secure.
“Those who oppose this are traitors. All Caps: TRAITORS. What is the penalty for traitors again?” Musk asked on X.

Another asked, “Why would you oppose only US citizens voting in our elections unless you were trying to allow non-citizens to cast a ballot(i.e. cheat)?”

If you find yourself on the team that doesn’t want proof of citizenship to vote, you’re on the wrong team.

?The SAVE Act will safeguard our elections by ensuring ONLY American citizens vote in federal elections. Those who oppose this are traitors.
All Caps: TRAITORS!

“that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections,”
Do the Democrats understand just how popular this is with just about everyone ?
Talk about tone deaf.

Who? And if Democrats really believed that non citizens can’t vote, then why would they fight this Bill? Oh yeah, b/c they want non citizens to vote

Polls show most Americans on a bipartisan basis overwhelmingly support voter ID laws despite the Democrat Party’s claims that they’re racist and amount to voter suppression.
But even if the SAVE Act passes in the House, it will likely stall in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
“House Republicans previously held a vote in May to block non-citizen voting in local Washington, D.C. elections, on which 52 Democrats broke away from their leadership and voted yes,” Axios noted.
“Democratic leadership similarly whipped against that bill, but the National Republican Congressional Committee countered by warning it would go after any Democrat who voted for it. That bill stalled in the Senate, and the SAVE Act is likely to as well if it passes the House.”
The issue of illegal aliens being able to vote in the presidential election is even more politically critical for Democrats now that Joe Biden’s reelection odds are collapsing in the wake of his disastrous debate performance.
