""Even though the efforts to enact these extreme citizenship policies at the federal level have run into roadblocks, there have been several state legislatures that have moved in this direction.""
""Certain provisions that mirror the SAVE America Act - particularly going through voter rolls to remove already registered citizens deemed non-eligible - could put up hurdles to voting for married women, trans people and others who have changed their names.""
Republican-led states are implementing stricter voter registration laws, including proof of citizenship requirements, despite delays in President Trump's elections bill. These changes, mirroring the SAVE America Act, may disproportionately affect married women, trans individuals, and others who have changed their names. States like Florida, Mississippi, Utah, and South Dakota have already enacted such laws, while Tennessee is considering similar legislation. The push for these laws has intensified in response to claims of election fraud, leading to increased legislative activity around voter ID and registration restrictions.
