“In an Oversight Committee hearing, I asked the former directors of the Census if they supported Federal laws that prohibit noncitizens from running for office, making financial contributions to candidates, and voting. All three said they support these safeguards to our elections, and all three were Democratic appointees. Mr. Speaker, my question to my Democratic colleagues is: Do Democrats support sensible safeguards for our elections? The minority can demonstrate their support and their answer by voting for the SAVE Act. I appreciate Representative Roy's leadership in this process and Representative Steil's leadership and encourage all my colleagues to vote for the SAVE Act.”
