 President Biden has vowed to veto the measure. Opponents of the bill say its core idea, establishing non-citizen voting as illegal, is redundant and argue its provisions will more likely lead to U.S. citizens being denied the right to vote than to preventing votes by foreign nationals. Speaker Mike Johnson, meanwhile, argued on the House floor Wednesday the legislation is necessary because non-citizens have voted in U.S. elections despite it being illegal to do so. Even though it's already illegal, this is happening, Johnson said.
