NBC: Is Trump suggesting the federal government count votes in elections? LEAVITT: What he's suggesting is that Republicans and Democrats in Congress should pass the Save America Act. It will require voter ID to vote and proof of citizenship to register to vote.

Although states like Arizona require proof of citizenship for state and local elections, a 2013 Supreme Court ruling requires them to use the federal voter registration form for federal elections. This form does not require documentary proof of citizenship, meaning non-citizens can register and vote in federal elections.

Why is the SAVE Act necessary? Because some states and local communities are letting non-citizens vote in American elections. That undermines the power of every citizen’s vote, and it’s wrong.

ARE UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS VOTING? Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are planning to push for a bill to ban non-citizens from voting. Here are the FACTS: - According to the Brennan Center for Justice, 30 of the 23.5 million votes they examined, in some of the areas with the most non-citizens voted illegally. That’s (0.0001%). And there are already laws against this obviously. - Non-citizens are already banned from voting in ALL Federal elections, as well as the State elections of ALL 50 STATES. - There are a very few municipalities where undocumented immigrants can vote in local elections (Mayor, school board, etc). They are Washington DC, San Francisco, Oakland and 10 cities in Maryland. That’s it. The federal government, however, has no say over who can vote in local municipal elections. So the conclusion is that Johnson and Trump are merely pushing for laws that are already in place to rile up their base.

Q: Trump said specifically that Republicans should 'take over' elections in 15 states. What did he mean by that? LEAVITT: With the passage of the SAVE Act, voter ID will be implemented across all 50 states. He was referring to specific states in which we've seen a high degree of fraud like California and New York.

BASH: Do you agree that the state is 'an agent for the federal govt' in elections? HUSTED: I understand the president's frustration.

Trump and Johnson (who doesn't even know if he has the votes for FISA because of Trump) are meeting today to discuss how to stop migrants coming to the United States from voting. CNN points out there is already a federal law in place banning non-citizens from voting in elections.

Democrats are coming out in droves to oppose the SAVE Act, and have resorted to calling it a "poll tax." The SAVE Act makes it so people have to show proof they are U.S. citizens, like a passport or birth certificate, to register to vote in federal elections. It also requires states to check that voters are citizens and remove non-citizens from voter lists. That is not a poll tax. Plain and simple.

Non-citizens should never be allowed to vote in America. I've always supported the SAVE Act, and now the Senate needs to do its job and secure our elections.

Q: What did you mean when you said you should 'nationalize elections' & which 15 states are you talking about? TRUMP: I want to see elections be honest, & if a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. If you think about it, the state is an agent for the federal govt on elections. Look at Detroit, Pennsylvania, Atlanta -- horrible corruption on elections

🚨 JUST IN: Thune gives BULLSH*T excuses when asked why the filibuster is more important than stopping illegals from voting "States have the authority to do this already. My state has those requirements in place!" This is about the states like California who BLATANTLY CHEAT, Thune. You KNOW that, you worthless, weak hack. Just because SOUTH DAKOTA might have "secure elections" does NOT mean Democrat states should be able to get away with rampant cheating. California's BS votes for federal officials effects EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN!

Reporter: “Is [Trump] suggesting that the federal government count votes in elections?” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt: “What the President is suggesting, and I just spoke to him about this, is that Republicans and Democrats in Congress should pass the SAVE America Act. This piece of legislation is going to ensure that states are abiding by federal election law, by removing non-citizens from their voter rolls.” “In addition, the SAVE America Act will require voter ID to vote, and it will require proof of citizenship to register to vote. These are very common-sense policies and proposals that 89% of our country agree with. So, that's what the President is talking about. Again, I just spoke with him about this, and he's calling on both Republicans and Democrats to send the SAVE America Act to pass it into law and to send it to his desk as quickly as possible.”

Only American citizens should vote in American elections. 83% of Americans support requiring photo ID to vote, but only ONE Democrat voted for the SAVE America Act to require it in every state yesterday. They want states like California and Illinois to keep voting without ID.

Why is the SAVE America Act even controversial? Only American citizens should vote in American elections. That shouldn’t be a partisan statement. It should be COMMON SENSE. The SAVE America Act is about one thing: protecting the integrity of our elections. In Texas alone, thousands of non-citizens have been removed from voter rolls. In close elections, that can absolutely matter. Every illegal vote cancels out the vote of a legal citizen. And spare me the argument that requiring ID is somehow discriminatory. I’m Black. I’m a veteran. I have 6 forms of government-issued ID. The idea that Black and Hispanic Americans are somehow incapable of obtaining an ID is one of the most insulting forms of political condescension in modern politics. Every American, regardless of race, religion, color, or creed, is capable of meeting the basic requirements to vote. The SAVE America Act doesn’t suppress votes. It PROTECTS votes. And the Senate should put it to a VOTE.

So, let me get this straight: Six swing states, simultaneously and like clockwork—a conspiracy—stopped counting on election night, November 3, 2020, and not a single member of the U.S. Congress has asked the question: WHO ordered the overthrow of the United States government on November 3, 2020? In other words, any member of the Republican Party in Congress who votes against the SAVE Act—or does anything to prevent the SAVE Act from becoming the law of the land—should consider yourself a Democrat—a participant in the overthrow of the Constitutional Republic of the United States. That is precisely why it’s called the SAVE Act.

Q: Do Democrats not have reason to be concerned that there are long-term plans by this administration to keep troops in American cities? LEAVITT: Why should they be concerned about the federal govt offering help to make their cities a safer place?
