The U.S. House, led by Republicans, passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act to prevent non-citizens from voting in federal elections, with opposition from the Biden administration and Democrats. The bill requires proof of citizenship for voter registration, emphasizing border and election security issues. Although instances of noncitizens voting are rare, Republicans argue for stricter measures to prevent potential illegal voting. The legislation, passed 221-198 along party lines, faces uncertainty in the Democrat-controlled Senate, highlighting partisan divides on voting rights and election integrity.
