Believe it or not, currently, federal voting forms do not require proof of US citizenship
Welfare offices and other government agencies in 49 states are handing out voter registration forms to illegals without proof of citizenship. Every state except Arizona, which recently passed a law barring the practice on state but not federal forms, gives applicants for either welfare benefits, driver’s licenses, or in some cases, mail-in ballots voter registration forms without demanding proof of citizenship.
Believe it or not, currently, federal voting forms do not require proof of US citizenship, but it is illegal to falsely claim to be a citizen or for a non-citizen to cast a ballot in a federal election.
The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993 mandates that states register voters at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and at agencies where Americans apply for public benefits. Federal law requires these offices to provide voter registration forms along with the application papers. If an individual claims to be a US citizen, that claim is deemed valid, and the individual is eligible for voter registration.
The very idea that based on someone’s word without proof, they are considered eligible for voter registration is absurd. Is this, or is this not the United States of America? The Democrats would love to turn this into a third-world nation, and policies like this are doing just that.
Last month, the House Administration Committee approved the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. The act requires states to receive proof of citizenship when anyone registers to vote by mail, at a DMV, or at a welfare agency office.
