"Trump and Mike Johnson Advocate for Non-Citizen Voting Ban"

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump and House speaker Mike Johnson plan to push for a bill to ban non-citizens from voting, despite the fact that voting when not eligible is already illegal under federal law. There is no evidence of widespread non-citizen voting, with only isolated instances found. The push to focus on election security and the situation at the US-Mexico border is part of a longstanding Republican line of attack on immigration and Democrats. Efforts to remove non-citizens from voter rolls run the risk of mistakenly targeting eligible voters, and widespread voter fraud does not exist in the US.
