Is that integrity? I dont think so. Supporters of this Republican voter suppression bill would claim that this bill is about preventing noncitizens from voting. It is just the opposite. it is a bill designed to prevent citizens from voting. Noncitizens are strictly prohibited under law from voting and face tough penalties for breaking these laws. And that is right. No one condones fraud. There is little evidence anywhere in the country of a significant problem with noncitizen voters. As our distinguished ranking member pointed out. if you want to make a case. document it. just dont claim it and then come through with a clear and transparent attempt to cut off the votes of those who do not share your political point of view. You didnt take an oath of office to do that. This bill is not about noncitizens as its supporters claim. Rather. it affects all American citizens by making them prove that they are. in fact. citizens even if they have voted for years. By forcing voters to undergo timeconsuming. burdensome. and expensive attempts to secure documents. this Republican voter suppression bill is a modernday poll tax.
