Trump Safeguards Citizenship Verification in Federal Elections

President Trump's new measures ensure accurate voter rolls and protect the integrity of federal elections by verifying citizenship status.
President Donald J. Trump is taking decisive action to protect the integrity of federal elections by ensuring accurate voter rolls and verifying the citizenship status of all registered voters. This fact sheet outlines the key steps the administration is taking to safeguard the electoral process and uphold the principle of one citizen, one vote.
The President is issuing an Executive Order that requires all federal agencies to provide the Department of Commerce with any records related to the number of citizens, non-citizens, and illegal aliens in the country. This data will be used to generate a comprehensive count of the total citizen population, providing crucial information to ensure the integrity of the census and congressional redistricting.
Additionally, the Executive Order directs the Department of Homeland Security to share citizenship records with states, enabling them to verify the eligibility of registered voters and remove non-citizens from voter rolls. This will help eliminate the potential for non-citizens to cast ballots in federal elections, a practice that undermines the democratic process.

"These measures will safeguard the principle of one citizen, one vote and protect the fundamental right of all Americans to have their voices heard in federal elections."
