“Judge blocks Trump election order despite overwhelming American support for voter ID,” Fox News reported Friday. “Federal court ruling strikes down executive action on election integrity as polls show 83% of Americans favor citizenship verification requirements.”
The judge is Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, and “the portion of the order that [she] struck down included provisions related to requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote.”
Kollar-Kotelly based her decision on the separation of powers, which is independent of the overwhelming polling. She says elections are constitutionally the purview of Congress. To that end, Rep. Chip Roy sponsors a bill to require states to obtain proof of citizenship for federal elections, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which has passed the House but is stalled in the Senate.
