The Republican Party is pursuing a multi-pronged strategy to restrict voting access, potentially culminating in a one-party state. Central to this is the “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act,” requiring stringent proof of citizenship for voter registration, and a presidential executive order mandating similar measures and allowing federal oversight of state voter rolls. A federal judge partially blocked the executive order, citing separation of powers, but the SAVE Act remains a significant threat, potentially disenfranchising millions of eligible voters. The Supreme Court, with its conservative majority, holds the ultimate power to determine the constitutionality of these measures.
