This progress has been stonewalled by a Democrat-controlled Senate whose leadership has failed to get a single appropriations bill cleared. “This legislation lays the foundation for the next administration to rein in out-of-control bureaucratic spending while also protecting the integrity of our elections by ensuring only American citizens vote in U.S. elections.” Bill Background: The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE Act) will: Require an individual to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections; and; Provide states with access to existing federal databases so they can clean up their voter registration rolls and remove noncitizens from the rolls. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:43:57Z |
