The bill requires states to obtain and verify documentary proof of U.S. citizenship before accepting voter registration applications for federal elections. It also adds new requirements for in-person and mail-in voting. Similar bills passed the House in 2024 and 2025 but stalled in the Senate. The 2026 version adds requirements related to voting in person and by mail.
The Case For
Supporters argue the bill is essential to election integrity to ensure only eligible U.S. citizens can participate in federal elections. They point to concerns about the accuracy of voter rolls and argue that documentary proof is a reasonable requirement, similar to what other democracies require. Several states including Arizona, New Hampshire, Louisiana, and Wyoming have already passed similar requirements.

The Case Against
Critics argue that non-citizen voting in federal elections is already a federal crime and documented cases are extremely rare. They contend the documentary proof requirements will disenfranchise millions of eligible American citizens who lack easy access to passports or birth certificates : disproportionately affecting elderly, low-income, rural, and minority voters. Similar state-level requirements have faced ongoing legal challenges.
