WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Neal Dunn (Florida-02) released a statement after voting in favor of H.R. 8281, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. The legislation mandates that every state must obtain proof of U.S. citizenship in person when an individual registers to vote and requires states to remove all non-citizens from their voter rolls.
"Requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote shouldn’t be an option, it should be a requirement for anyone who casts a ballot," said Congressman Dunn. "It is unbelievable that some refuse to prioritize election integrity. I’m proud to be a co-sponsor of the SAVE Act and keep my promise to preserve the sanctity of our ballot box and prevent non-citizens from voting. I’m pleased that the SAVE Act has passed the House and hope the Senate will take up this legislation without delay."
