Considered by Senate (Message from the House considered). (consideration: CR S1647)
This bill requires every person registering to vote in federal elections to show documents proving they are a U.S. citizen, such as a passport, birth certificate, or REAL ID. It also requires all voters to show a photo ID when casting a ballot in federal elections. If this passes, you would need citizenship documents to register and a photo ID to vote, and states would be required to check their voter rolls against federal immigration databases to find and remove non-citizens.
