House Republicans passed a voter ID bill Wednesday, requiring proof of citizenship to vote with minimal Democratic support.
Only one Democrat, Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), supported the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, also known as the SAVE America Act. The bill, which passed 218-213 and was sponsored by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), would require citizenship proof to register and presentation of ID to cast a ballot.
