Election integrity has been a priority for many Republicans for years, and the party’s electoral victories in November paved the way for the passage of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, or SAVE, Act in the House of Representatives. In America, you can’t drive a car, board a plane, or buy fireworks without an ID proving you are who you say you are. Requiring proof of citizenship to vote is just common sense. #SAVEAct pic.twitter.com/yTnpym4j5H — Rep. Mark Harris (@RepMarkHarrisNC) April 10, 2025 Leftists who oppose virtually any voter ID measures were clamoring for attention while the bill was being discussed. One common complaint is that its requirements would essentially disenfranchise married women, but White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller took that argument apart during a recent interview with Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity. As the Daily Caller reported: “The only reason, Sean, you would be against any of that is if you wanted illegal aliens to vote and to vote in incredibly large numbers. So let’s just deal with all of this BS right now,” Miller said. “Every other country in the world of any note requires an ID to vote,” Miller added. “The notion that Democrats are pushing that married women, who, by the way, are a Republican voting demographic, cannot get ID could be one of the dumbest talking points I have heard in my entire life.” In an effort to push back against the bill ahead of the House vote, Democrats repeated the claim to voters and constituents, despite Republican lawmakers saying the legislation includes provisions for married women and enables them to register to vote in federal elections.

You need ID to fly, buy alcohol, or adopt a pet, but requiring proof to vote is disenfranchisement? Come on Man! The SAVE Act targets non-citizen voting, not name changes. Read the bill! — Cat Johnson (@Cat_Johnson1776) April 11, 2025 Married women who took their husband’s name can vote under the SAVE act by merely showing their marriage license along with their birth certificate. @NoteNeeded @CommunityNotes — Thinky Crow (@KingAdrock42) April 11, 2025 Democrat lies DEBUNKED Democrats have been spreading LIES about the SAVE Act because they don’t want to secure our elections. Here are the FACTS: pic.twitter.com/3ti1oDX9mi — Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) April 10, 2025 Hillary Clinton’s disingenuous opposition to the bill came under attack last week, as the Daily Wire reported: “Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don’t match their birth certificates,” Clinton said. “Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.” The bill, introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), seeks to “amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to require proof of United States citizenship to register an individual to vote in elections for Federal office.” It also instructs states to remove noncitizens from voter rolls and establish a process for applicants lacking documentary proof to submit alternative evidence to verify U.S. citizenship. Republican lawmakers responded to Clinton on X, via “quote” because she has replies turned off, by saying that her post was untrue. “Stop. You are lying. Read the bill. And for the love of God, stop treating women like they are incapable or idiots,” said Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL). Here’s what White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had to say to critics of the measure:
