In light of the unprecedented flood of illegal aliens across the southern border, National Only Citizens Vote Week, happening from September 16-20, is a crucial opportunity to address the threat of noncitizens voting and encourage action at every level of government to safeguard election integrity.

To help raise awareness about this important issue and empower citizens with knowledge and resources to ensure only eligible voters cast ballots in the upcoming election, the Only Citizens Vote coalition has released a citizen toolkit. This free online resource is specially designed to “inform and educate the American public about the dangers and problems surrounding noncitizen voting during National Only Citizens Vote Week.” It includes a unique theme for every day, instructions on how to host a successful “only citizens vote” sign rally, and resources for concerned citizens to utilize in social media posts.

The Only Citizens Vote coalition has also released toolkits for state leaders and congressional leaders which encourage urgently needed changes to election law to prevent noncitizens from accessing the ballot box.

Only Citizens Vote Week comes at a critical moment as states begin sending out mail-in ballots and open early voting locations. Polling suggests that control of the White House and both chambers of Congress will likely be decided by slim margins, and Americans deserve confidence that noncitizens cannot unlawfully influence the outcome.

Over the past four years, 10-20 million individuals have illegally crossed into the United States, creating a serious threat to election integrity. As AMAC Newsline has previously reported, “although federal law does prohibit non-citizens from voting in federal elections, there are few mechanisms in place for actually identifying and punishing individuals who violate those laws.”

As a fact sheet provided in the citizen toolkit notes, “in 2014, a nonpartisan study by statisticians determined that 6.4% of noncitizens voted in the 2008 elections. There are currently an estimated 23 million noncitizens in the U.S. If only that same 6.4% voted in 2024, that would result in over 1.5M unlawful votes – enough to swing election results in many states.”

There are now numerous avenues available to illegal aliens to illegally gain access to the ballot box. In 2021, President Biden signed an Executive Order which requires the U.S. Marshals to provide illegal aliens in their custody voter registration information. 14 states don’t require a photo ID to cast a ballot, while 28 states, including Michigan, Georgia, and North Carolina, allow voters to use a student ID to vote, which does not distinguish between citizens and non-citizens. At least 19 other states and Washington, D.C., have also passed bills allowing non-citizens to obtain driver’s licenses.

AMAC Action previously made its commitment to ensuring only citizens can vote clear by backing the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which the House of Representatives passed in July. This legislation takes concrete steps to close loopholes in state and federal election laws by amending the National Voter Registration Act to require states to obtain documentary proof of U.S. citizenship and identity when registering an individual to vote in a federal election. It also would require states to establish a program to remove non-citizens from their existing voter rolls and empowers citizens to bring civil suits against election officials that fail to uphold proof of citizenship requirements for federal elections.

The Only Citizens Vote coalition’s citizen toolkit accordingly encourages voters to call on their elected representatives to immediately pass the SAVE Act.

Senate Democrats have refused so far to even consider the legislation. But with more illegal aliens continuing to surge across the border and mounting evidence pointing to growing numbers of noncitizens voting, the issue is emerging as a major story in the final weeks of campaign season.

Isn’t it sad that we even have to have this discussion in the United States of America? No other major, first world nation allows non-citizens to vote in their elections for obvious reasons. Yet here we are in 2024 with one of the two major political parties advocating for having illegal and unvetted non-citizens being not only granted asylum and an expedited path to citizenship, but the right to vote. We truly deserve to be the butt of jokes around the world for tolerating this.

All I know is I’m an American Citizen, Senior Citizen and my husband who are on SS and hurting to put food on the table, gas in a 2006 car and buy our medicine and co-pays. This is real people we cannot have another 4 years of this!
We paid our dues for 40 years and illegals get a free card to live, eat and housing and health! Is this America?

I’m 76 years old, retired and on SSI. I’ve worked hard for all I have. Illegal aliens should never be allowed to vote in an American election. Voter integrity is a must especially in these trying times in our country. We must preserve our American values. Only US citizens should vote in our elections.

Praise for AMAC for presenting this information about voting and the detective work that seems to be required these days to simply vote for a candidate for public office . Reading that part of this article that mentions how in 2021 President Biden signed an Executive order requiring U.S.Marshals to provide illegal aliens in their custody with voter registration information makes it clear why this whole issue is what it is and why it should be of concern to intelligent , responsible American citizens. In mathematics there is an order involved in solving equations ,for good reason, one aspect of an unsolved equation presents a foundation for other procedures — the idea of keeping things in order helps to determine the correct answer to the question under consideration. If someone is suspected of entering the Country illegally and is in custody then it would make sense to solve the uncertainty about their status as to where they are going to go when authorities are finished with their investigation. Providing voter registration to someone who has entered the Country illegally makes no sense whatsoever. Only legal citizens should be voting in elections here in the United States of America. Has there ever been any instance of Americans traveling to other countries to vote in elections in those foreign countries ? As far as I know that has never happened. The idea of people voting for who is going to be part of the government of their Country is something that is very important,a serious consideration – and could be compared to a family matter that members of a family resolve without intrusion from people outside of their family . This Only Citizens Vote coalition is a great idea !

That this is even a topic of discussion in our Country is a flipping disgrace!!! I can’t believe that American Citizens would stand for this garbage. Talk about throwing away our sovereignty and whizzing away your rights…good grief! Individuals who are in our Country illegally have no right to vote in any of our elections. They have no say. They have no vested interest here and certainly don’t have our Country and Citizens’ best interests in their heart. These illegal aliens are here to tear our Country apart and turn it into a third-world toilet. They are criminals, usurping our laws and spitting on our way of life. You want to talk about a threat to democracy??? Just look at what the democrats are allowing to happen on our southern border. THIS is the biggest “threat to our democracy” and national health. These criminal illegal aliens are flooding our borders and bringing all kinds of diseases with them. They are not being stopped and are being bussed all over our Country, spreading their diseases such as tuberculosis, syphillis, gonorrhea, leprosy, polio, cholera, diphtheria, smallpox, and severe acute respiratory syndromes. Remember folks, this is ALL filtering into our schools, to our kids. It needs to stop! The only way to stop it is to NOT vote for komrade kacklin’ kammy and tampon tim walz. Voting for komrade kammy will bring more of this to our front doors.

The blocking of asking for ID is a word-salad explanation to claim “discrimination” even though ID is required to do any legal transactions like getting paid to work through the IRS required income reporting. It is as if this motion is to expand scamming as acceptable while claiming that not enough people are paying their fair share of taxes. It is not an invasion of privacy to have today’s age proof of ID doesn’t have to be carried in a paper form but digitally

This information needs to get out-like in the debate tonight! Most Americans do not believe that illegals are actually voting in our federal elections! I read on Epoch Times this morning that one state is charging a woman who has been here illegally since 2011 and voted in 2016, 2020 and was still registered when they charged her. There are more people out there doing this-they need to get charged and the information reported! If one is doing it, there could easily be a million more. Call Congress and get them to pass the SAVE ACT-absolutely NO reason NOT TO PASS THIS!

I am sick and tired about that the illegal aliens should have a right to vote. just why did my grandparent com here to America to have the freedom of speech, own property, and oh that’s right to vote which was denied them in their old country. Only true 100% Legal American’s have the right to vote, and that’s a fact you scum loving low life who call yourself Demos. I am thankful that are founding father’s set forth the standards that make Americans different from all other nations. Having the right to vote is a sacred right afforded to only legal citizen’s of this wonderful Nation of The United States of America. Go USA, and may your colors be raised high for all true 100% United States citizen’s natural of by becoming after swearing allegiance to this great country the United States of America.

I can’t even believe we have to have this discussion! I’m 72, and Medicare prescription insurance costs more per month than what I can use of it, because they hardly pay for any of my prescriptions! This is insane. Illegals should have no rights at all!

Communist harris told ACLU that she supports ICE cuts. She wants that Illegal Alien vote illegally and unconstitutionally regardless over Americans to stay in power and control. As usual, they put criminals first over the Safety and Security of Americans.
Vote President Trump is the only logical choice.

The Democrats have to cheat , lie , steal , corrupt , to win . They did it in the last election . Michigan is run by these thugs …. However , the stupidity of the people is what totally gets me ….

Trump is my President always was always will be & J D Vance is a young Trump .. The best is in these 2 men who we are lucky to have on our side. GOD BLESS THEM !

Off subject buy needs to be said!!! Is Taylor Swift actually registered to vote? What will she do if Kackling Kamala wins, and Taylor’s fans find that they have to choose between buying $6.00/doz. eggs to feed the kids or tickets to a concert. Taylor should schedule a visit with the families of the soldiers killed during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal and get a firsthand look at the real world. She could also donate a couple of her millions to local animal shelters who are trying like hell to care for pets that loving families surrender because they can no longer afford to feed, very sad. We are still a free world, but Taylor needs to rethink her decisions. She fails to see the big picture.

I’m for every American citizen should vote. However AMAC wants to make it more difficult for college students to vote even if they are American citizens because they are perceived to vote democrat more often. That is voter suppression.
