.@SpeakerJohnson Here is mine: They are spinning lies, just like in 2020, to falsely claim fraud in November. The "SAVE" Act is a sham, wasting time and taxpayer money. Their nonsense erodes trust in our democracy and targets voters unlikely to support Republicans. This fake issue is a distraction from real problems. Congress needs to focus on genuine issues, but instead, this Republican-led House is bent on complicating voting for the underprivileged. Noncitizens voting in local elections are legal residents, not illegal immigrants. Only about 10 municipalities, including San Francisco and some areas in Vermont, allow this. These permissions are strictly for local elections like school board or municipal positions, and only for legal noncitizen residents. It's a federal crime for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, punishable by deportation. No one would risk their future for an illegal vote. Noncitizen voting is a non-issue, and Republicans know it. Georgia purged over 300,000 voter registrations in 2019, many wrongfully. Their flawed "use it or lose it" policy hit minority voters hardest. In Ohio, in 2019, Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose removed 26,000 registrations, criticized for a blunt approach that disenfranchised eligible voters. Your claim that noncitizen voting is a serious problem is a blatant lie. Reliable sources like the Brennan Center for Justice and the Bipartisan Policy Center confirm it's extremely rare. A study of 23.5 million votes found only about 30 noncitizen votes—0.0001%. The Heritage Foundation’s 20-year study found just 24 cases. These facts demolish your exaggerated claims, proving noncitizen voting doesn't affect election outcomes. Now to your nonsense: "198 House Democrats voted against preventing illegal aliens from voting in American elections."Your claim is intentionally misleading. Democrats opposed the bill not because they support illegal voting, but due to concerns it could disenfranchise eligible voters unable to provide certain documentation. Your distortion only aims to spread fear and confusion. We are not fools. "Joe Biden has welcomed millions upon millions of illegals into the country knowing that noncitizens only have to check a box to vote in a federal election." This is a blatant LIE. Federal law mandates that voters attest to their citizenship under penalty of perjury. Noncitizen voting is extremely rare and not facilitated by simply "checking a box." Your exaggeration is a desperate attempt to malign the administration without basis in reality. "We have long known this was an intentional effort to turn them into voters." This is an unfounded nonsense conspiracy theory. There is no credible evidence of any effort to turn noncitizens into voters. Such baseless assertions are designed to stoke fear and distrust, detracting from genuine policy discussions and undermining democratic values. "House Republicans believe that only Americans should vote in American elections." This is a straw man argument. Democrats also believe only American citizens should vote. The disagreement lies in the method of enforcement, with Democrats arguing that the SAVE Act's measures could disenfranchise eligible voters rather than enhance election security. "House Democrats have now proven they believe that illegal aliens should vote in American elections." This is another lie. Voting against the SAVE Act does not equate to supporting illegal voting. Democrats' opposition stems from legitimate concerns about the potential negative impact on eligible voters, not an endorsement of illegal voting. Your nonsense is nothing but a smear campaign designed to erode trust in democratic institutions and stoke xenophobia. #votingawareness
