Conservative activists are taking a core election-integrity initiative on the road in a rallying attempt to save the SAVE Act.
On Monday, Tea Party Patriots Action will roll out its inaugural Only Citizens Vote Bus Tour, a trek covering more than a dozen states — from California to Maryland — to champion the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act. The bill amends the flawed National Voter Registration Act to require individuals registering to vote to provide documentary proof of citizenship before casting ballots in federal elections.
Proponents say the SAVE Act is an additional layer of election security that does not currently exist in current law. Opponents, including the vast majority of Democrats in Congress, insist there are already protections in federal law that make falsely claiming U.S. citizenship on voter registration forms a felony.
