Congressman Thompson blasts SAVE Act, accuses GOP of promoting voter suppression
SUMMARY: Mississippi Congressman Bennie Thompson criticized the recently passed SAVE Act, arguing it doesn’t effectively secure elections but rather suppresses voter participation. Despite the GOP’s insistence on preventing noncitizen voting, Thompson highlighted that evidence suggests noncitizen influence on elections is minimal. The legislation requires proof of citizenship for voter registration, risking disenfranchisement for millions, particularly among marginalized groups. Thompson contends that the bill is a guise for suppressing votes and calls for Republicans to focus on genuine election security measures instead of pursuing partisan agendas. The SAVE Act may struggle in the Senate due to insufficient support.
