This bill is such a nightmare. I moved twice in three years and changed my voting registration online each time. This bill would require you to change your voting registration *in person* any time you moved districts - which, if you’re young, could be pretty frequently
NEW: House passes SAVE America Act
218-213; Rs + 1 Dem (Cuellar) vote yes.
Revised Trump-backed bill requires showing proof of citizenship "in person" to register and slaps photo ID rules to vote.
Now it goes to the Senate. No path to 60. THUNE promises a vote.

House passes SAVE America Act, sending Trump-backed election bill to the Senate
The legislation would overhaul federal election laws in all 50 states by imposing new voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements. But it faces a daunting path in the Senate.

Tom Tillis claims ICE agents need masks to avoid facial recognition and doxxing. Facial recognition is a law enforcement tool. Posting a photo is not doxxing. The argument being made is for unidentifiable state power.
