Mr. President. as we move forward on this immigration bill. we need to make sure we protect voters and the 15th amendment by protecting against illegal voting. The Constitution maintains that voting is a privilege reserved for U.S. citizens. Noncitizens do not have this right. Those who dont abide by our laws are not free to influence our political process or our policies with a vote. The bipartisan CarterBaker Commission on Federal Election Reform proposed requiring photo ID cards to ensure those who are voting are the same people as those on the rolls and that they are legally entitled to vote.
