All those senators that do not vote yes for this bill need to be removed from office.
And we will know who they are!!
Yes, we need to pay attention who is voting against it. We need to vote them out for good.
By force !!
It needs to be published and made to the public who the traitors are
Chuck Schumer will never bring a bill like that to the senate floor. He and he alone controls what bills come up for a vote. That's senate rules THE DEMOCRATS will never vote for this bill because they can't cheat
As a natural born citizen of the USA , I demand proof of citizenship, in order to vote in our country . No excuses . Follow the rules. It's the right + fair way. Simple really. Show proof of citizenship .
I saw video of illegals who admitted that they were registered to vote where they were living in Charlotte, NC and NC has a "Voter ID" Bill built into the Constitution for the State, but has been watered down by politicians and the Democrat controlled Board of Elections.
What about him? Those are what you call you know, Asian Americans, or Mexican Americans, or whatever Americans that are born from those people are going to put their moms and dads and whatever.
ex. obama not born in America that started this crap
And that you are registered to a valid address in the district you are voting in.
As a naturalized citizen of the USA, I believe in proof of citizenship in order to vote. What is the point of becoming a citizen legally if non-citizens can also vote?
In my opinion anyone on both side who doesn't vote yes for this bill should be removed from office
This would have to apply to American citizens as well. Bring your birth certificate when you go to vote.
@@MLeone2010
I'm an American citizen and I've voted all my adult life and never missed an election. What if:
1. I'm an active serviceman/woman and can't get authorized leave to re-register?
2. I've recently became a widow and my name doesn't match the name on my birth certificate?
3. I'm a native American, living on the reservation over 100 miles from the voting office and without transportation?
4. I recently lost my birth certificate when my house got destroyed in a fire/flood/tornado/etc.
Do you now understand why the passing of HR 8281 now is such bullshit? By the time it passes in both House & Senate then gets signed into law, there simply won't be sufficient time to ensure all American citizens can re-register for the 2024 election.
...maybe that's the GOP plan all along given there are more registered Democrats than Republicans 😮
@@ronfriedman8740 OMG! Stop this nightmare already, This is already settled law. What a waste of time. There is no proof of any wide spread fraud. Please consider voting blue.
@@MLeone2010I have a voter ID card that is very very very old . Along with my passport .
@@ronfriedman8740no. Ive lived in the Rio Grande Valley 54 years. My mom worked @ the Texas Department of Human Services 30 years. Migrants w/ a work permit getting assistance automatically get a voter registration card. If your work visa expires, the voter registration card DOES NOT. Migrants are my friends & neighbors. I can tell you with absolute confidence, they DO illegally VOTE in National elections.
Impeach the 198 democrats who voted against this bill.
Impeach Trump first
@@aletarossi-thomas8757🤡
The democrat run senate will vote no. Bill is dead.
@@aletarossi-thomas8757 for what?
@@aletarossi-thomas8757Really? You don't know what impeach means huh... You're obviously a VERY smart democrat.
MAGA🇺🇲
WE'VE WON ALREADY.
In my opinion anyone on both side who doesn't vote yes for this bill should be removed from office !
You are exactly right! And I agree 100%
Why? Every election is secure. Why doesn't Mike put forth something that helps families? All culture wars and nonsense for the CULT.
I absolutely agree!
100%!
I agree wholeheartedly!
Everyone who votes against this bill should immediately be thrown out of office.
And charged with treason.
When are they voting on this? We all need to call the capitol phone number & request our senators office. We need to demand they vote to pass this under threat of "no longer donating" & voting them out. Hell, threaten to rally support for & donate to their opponent.
Doesn't matter if you're bluffing, enough pissed constituents calling makes them act. (It worked when demanding they bring the pistol brace bill to the floor for a vote)
I agree
Agree
@@PyroRob69 good idea. I think Mike Johnson is trying to make that very point. If Dems have a system to steal votes wherein the minority -the fringes as Dr Phil points out- our country is down the tubes in terms of the will of the people. Dems are trying to make themselves rulers by minority and manipulation.
Every American who loves the country can be alerted as you have accomplished in the post.
Any non U.S. citizen who voted should be charged with falsehoods.
@@belonakidd3397 they would go to jail, but there aren't any cases of it
@@peterjermey7235 I agree. Novel.
Republicans picked this up, Biden sold you out. This STOPS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FROM VOTING. Most American's do not know this. Biden has not yet Approved the Bill. Ask yourself WHY??
Any politician that votes against this should be charged with breaking thier oath of office and be immediately removed from government service
No one here illegally or a non citizen should vote. PERIOD
They shouldn’t get government benefits but they do. They need to pass a bill to stop that.
There are a few states giving illegals and non-citizens id so they can vote now. But they're not requiring proof of citizenship
Good news, they already can't. Come on, use your brain.
@morangejuice some can vote in lower elections like state and local. Some states are trying to cram through bills that would legally allow criminal aliens to vote for president. All that aside, they're still counted in census thus giving dems extra electoral votes. It's called padding, but that's dems for you. Always trying to cheat cause they can't win any other way. Use your brain.
@@morangejuice that was rude.
Democrates are trying to get it so they can.
You can make a point without being an a$$
Anyone in house or senate who votes against this is unworthy of another vote from us.
I agree. We need the names of those opposing
No. This is not needed when its already a federal law. No illegal can vote in any federal election. Its been this way for the past 30 years.
I agree
And have to show a ID to vote
Why. We already have to shoe proof when we register to vote. Ask yourself why didnt the find a problem with this when the did all the recounts in Georgia and Arizona?
Absolutely, you have to be a citizen of THE USA TO VOTE!!!
No other country could you vote without citizenship. America should be the leader in this. Not a citizen NO VOTE. !!!!
89% ??? THAT SHOULD BE 100% OF AMERICANS SHOULD AGREE THAT ONLY LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS SHOULD GET TO.. VOTE !!!
It is already illegal at the federal level and has been since the 1990s. Non U.S. citizens cannot vote in ANY federal elections. This bill makes no sense.
The democrat's want to cheat, so it's not going to be 100%
Maybe the ones who said "no" weren't actually US citizens.
POLLS LIE INTENTIONALLY.
@@KevinSmith-gu7fb Oooh, touché!
LEGAL US CITIZENS ONLY should be able to VOTE in the UNITED STATES!! This legislation NEEDS TO PASS!
Of course!
Yes , common sense and we work hard for our rights and freedoms and the right to vote is sacred and should not be adulterated!
Yeah but how are the dems going to win elections with landslide then? Think mark think.
No this legislation is just rhetoric and fear to trigger a low informed Right wing base.
I don't think it will. I look forward to mailing in my ballot from Canada - j/k
This needs to be approved for Americas survival!!
Remember the 198 who voted NO, give us the list
If they vote No.. Vote them out!! This is America and our American citizens only have the right!!!
That is the issue. We cant.
If they dont pass this bill the system is compromised and we will never get accountability.
This is the purpose of the second amendment.
I want to know names of any of them vote no!!!!!!!! Sick of it
@@Michael-ex8lk the system is already compromised.
total oxymoron if they don't vote on election integrity we will vote them out lol this is pointless because they never do what's right it will never make law.........
If Democrats Vote "No", then Understand
they have no intention of "Fair Elections"
coming about. Voting "No" is "their own
formally declaring war against Americans, and against Our Constitutional
Republic". In other words, "1861" again
Started by Democrats. Pray they choose
not the same foolish, costly path.
Make a list of every Traitor that opposes this.
Definetly
I've been making a list for the past three and a half years...LOL
Making a list and checking it twice.
Does any of you read the laws in this country? It is already illegal at the federal level. This was taken care of in the 1990s. Non citizens cannot under any circumstance vote in any federal election including state representatives so why the need to spend more money when the law just needs to be enforced?
Show us ONE illegal immigrant voter and I'll show you multiple maga's who got caught voting twice.
Yes, absolutely! Only American citizens should vote!
not even an american and i still think AMERICAN election should be voted on by AMERICAN CITIZEN
It should be 100 💯 percent of Americans who want this bill passed
Should not be a partisan issue split along party lines, shouldn't be an issue at all, like you say there's no reason 100% shouldn't support this, say for instance you go pick up your favorite food item and the packaging has changed and now there's some extra unnecessary wrapper, it might be irritating at first but if it helps to protect the food and keep it safe and fresh it is an acceptable trade-off, because 100% of consumers would probably prefer to have the extra wrapper for an added bit of safety, that's all this is, just the safety measure, it's not a big social justice issue at all
It's already illegal for any noncitizen to vote and with less than four months before such a critical presidential race and no evidence of any widespread voter fraud it's very obvious why Speaker Johnson wants HR8281 passed now.
You can't register to vote unless you are a US citizen. Conned again.
@@glaefke17 maybe you did not pay attention to her, that means you're not an American
@onamattapeeya no it just means you believe everything you are told. Like Trump saying he doesn't have any idea what Project 2025 is. Lol there is a video that you won't watch because yer ego is too big to fail.
Funny how one man has destroyed our country and still has supporters. SMH, FJB!
Luckily he was found guilty on 34 felony counts, so will never vote.
Not so sure about his illegal immigrant wife.
It's beyond comprehension!
@@johnsarradet2459sometimes it’s better not to comment and let people know your thoughts 😂
Evil people
@@farson67 right 🤣
COMPLETELY ABSURD that this is even an issue of debate. ABSURD!!!
Thank you, Mike Johnson!!
Anyone who votes NO on this bill is in direct violation of their oath to defend the Constitution!!
True
Impeach Jo Jo biden
Republic is under attack……we must in ga…..check rolls in ga…..
@@hubertbrucegossett1643impeach him 4 months before election? C'mon man! He ain't even gonna be on the ticket.
@@Space.Ghost.They want war so he can stay in office because if he's still in office and we are in a war he can cancel the election and stay put.
There needs to be consequences for people offering to register people to vote WITHOUT getting proof of citizenship.
Felony consequences.
@@chillbilly2517 If it's a felony for Trump to lie to a stripper, or whatever nonsense they convicted him for, it should be a super-felony to cheat in elections.
Democrats do not care!! Keep praying. These are serious times. Forget party vote for what you want to benefit American Citizens First!!
Only citizens should vote 💯 %
It’s time for a government house cleaning. Vote vote vote!!!!!
finally, a politician who calls an illegal , illegal, instead of a "migrant."
He sold out to the Democrats on EVERY Major Issue. Please keep up. This is just meaningless grandstanding.
@@GeneJohnson-vy2ci Supporting a bill that 89% of Americans agree with is not meaningless. It’s them doing exactly what we asked for. It’s rare, and should be respected.
@@dman29495 Let's see if it gets passed. Mike knows IT WON'T. Makes it easy for him to grandstand the issue.
@@GeneJohnson-vy2ci The fact remains that it’s genuinely out of his control. You can do a little googling, and find better names to be upset about.
🚩 BIDEN said he will VETO❗️
This should be a bi partisan bill. To not support it imo is treasony!
I bet everything I digitally can it will be a straight party line vote.
🤣🤣🤣
It’s already the law
@@Iukereigns3460 What law is it?
@@gorkyd7912 being a citizen to vote
Keep bringing needed legislation like this Mr Speaker, the American people are watching!
Well, first of all, this speaker keeps allowing Biden to send 61 billion dollars to Ukraine. He's not all that in a bag of chips in my view. He's just like the democrats he's just trying to Act. All high and mighty in my book.I don't trust this man at all
Thank you for passing this bill! ❤️🇺🇸😎💪😊👍🦅⭐🗽🙏
Anyone who disagrees need not be here! Period! This is not about parties.
Nailed it!
Remember what trump said he will take care of it
Name names of all who vote against this bill.
Names and party and pictures.
And home addresses
@@johneasler9967 FAFO, magat
Rollcall vote.
@@susancohen8009 absolutely
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
God bless you. 🙏
Absolutely, Absolutely,Absolutely...No ifs Or Buts...
In my opinion, any politician who does not vote YES for this bill should have their name posted on the internet and removed from the office as well.
American people want their country back.
Yes, Definitely
This has been the law for decades they are making political theater! Since 1996 there have been Thirty (30) THREE ZERO cases of illegal aliens that TRIED TO REGISTER TO VOTE! They are pushing their anti immigration agenda!
How about right NOW!!
only a true commie would vote this bill down!
MEXICO REQUIRES IDENTIFICATION TO VOTE!!!
MEXICO GETS IT!!!
WHY CANT THE U.S.A. GET IT!
It's a western thing. Look at France. They are flooding places with illegals to knock everybody down to the same level where it's the 1% vs the poor 99% this is intentional and will happen eventually. Unless we do something
Florida has voter Id.
Because America has many more enemies than Mexico ... and they've all learned how to defeat us from within.
ID is one thing being citizens is different. Anyone can get an iD
Oh, they get it, and don't want it.
Even in Developing countries, it is required to vote with an ID and without it you CANNOT VOTE.
And the room is empty of course..😡
This should NOT even have a bill to vote on. Hands down American CITIZENS only!!!!!
What a tool
Only citizens yes please vote yes.
Some scary ass shit just happened and Americans are unaware of what just occured.
Well, It was pretty cryptic.Do tell what just happened that americans don't know about.Are you referring to this vote
Picture ID with thumbprint for all voters.
Some european countries require inked finger print on ballot.
We demand names of who votes against this!
So we can vote them out of office.
That's easy all the democrats
If they televised the vote we can watch and see who does and who doesn't. 😮
Every Democrat
@@kidfunkyfri3308 I’m sure there will be some RINOS vote against it, like those who voted for the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act
THANKYOU FOR CALLING THE ILLEGALS “ILLEGALS!”🇺🇸🙏🏼🇺🇸
@@janetcaldwell7200 remember the native Americans are the only true Americans the rest of us are all immigrants that came from other countries
ALSO INVADORS! 😈😈😈😈
@@janetcaldwell7200 like Melania, right?
It is disrespectful to the people who came in legally, to disregard our laws from the illegals 💪🇺🇲💪🇺🇲💪
Don’t you get it, they are just trying to divide us! Color, race, sex, illegals. Vote Blue people! They are using scare tactics to get you to vote for them. They are dictator wanna be! Wake up people!!
Anyone in Congress the Senate and the president should be in favor and vote in favor. Anyone who votes against is in Violation of their oath of office and should be expelled and investigated for treason.
Let us know,print the list of who voted against this bill!!!
Any legislator who opposes this should resign.
Mr. Speaker Johnson, please save America!
He's trying his best. God Bless him ... 🙏

Any member that doesn't sign this bill should be expelled immediately for not upholding the oath of office
Anyone who disagrees with having proof of citizenship should be removed from office. Taxation without representation was a major factor in shaping this country.
EXACTLY Correct 💯% 😎👍
EVILE,Works Democrats should be Barred!
For, Evermore!
We, the people, are extremely Pissed off!💀☠️😡💯%
Stop Non citizens ,from Voting!
A driver's license doesn't prove citizenship a passport does a birth certificate does and a ID card so folks that's what we need..
I agree Only Citizen.....period!
The world thinks we are fools without any voter identification to vote!
nah, they just think we are against democracy....
Ask any Iranian, they will tell you straight up that the United States is not a democratic country LOL!
Serious, foreigners know the US election system is managed and rigged by individuals the American public never heard of...
I think Putin said it best, the president doesn't run the United States and actually can't decide basic foreign policy because the President isn't really in charge of the executive branch...
There are already state laws that require ID, and prevent illegal voting. This is just a messaging bill for the simple-minded.
@@billcook7285 Tells us why the democrats are against voter ID.
@@billcook7285 Actually, 15 states require NO ID whatsoever, and 17 more only require/"request" a non-photo ID. So, there are only 18 states that require/request a photo ID. So yes, there are state laws, but if they aren't asking for any form of ID, how is it properly enforced?
@@billcook7285 Wrong again. You work for CNN?
Anyone opposing this bill is clearly not doing work in the best interest of our nation.
The bill is a joke, it is already a clear law being ignored.
Fact: 1996, the U.S. Congress passed a federal immigration enforcement bill called the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRAIRA). Section 611 of IIRAIRA criminalized noncitizen voting in federal elections
Absolute proof in citizenship needed to vote ‼️💯🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸
Those that vote NO, should be placed on a list so the entire country can see who they are….
I am so happy that the speaker is calling these people as illegal, as opposed to immigrants! ❤
Well said Speaker Mike Johnson!!
They don't care what Americans want!!😡🤬
No foreign or illegal votes EVER!!!!!
Citizen only Vote.
YOU MUST PROVE WITH DOCUMENTATION THAT YOU ARE A SWORN CITIZEN, OR BORN IN THIS COUNTRY TO ENTER.
I am with you Mr Speaker of the House praying this bill passes on both side
We want LEGAL AMERICAN VOTING!
We have that. This is just hot air
Biden has VETO privilege
➕ said he will Veto SAVE ACT❗️
Our Speaker is 100% correct!!
Any who vote against this should be immediately removed from their position and labeled an enemy of the state !
How is this even a vote??? Non Americans allowed to vote is the most insane thing I’ve ever heard!
both side should 100% support this bill
To vote, to get a drivers license, to receive monetary or food benefits... incompetency is not to be tolerated.
Only Americans should receive food stamps...exclude anchor babies.
I was born with health issues, I've been on heart medication since I was 19, every month I pull out the state ID and then I signed for them, it's never occurred to me to complain about it because why would i? I'm an adult in a society and that's part of the social contract, it's like people grow old now but they don't grow up anymore
Every Democrat voted no.. so they are saying just so long as you cross the border you can vote..every one in the world is a citizen?
This bill is not a suppression of people’s right to vote. It is a bill to ensure that your American citizens vote counts.
Good Job Johnson 👍🏼
Yes Johnson go find your Johnson! It will certainly give you something to do.
This is not a debatable issue. America is a country of law and order. Illegals have absolutely no rights here.
YES, YES, YES! A valid ID is required for everything else and SHOULD be required to vote. No one who is NOT a citizen of the USA should have a say in our country.
Why are they even voting if 80% of america agrees????
100 % should agree. That's the law US Americans only vote. Those illegals caught voting illegally should be arrested and deportation immediately!!! In my opinion
Because we are a constitutional republic and not a democracy.
Bc that number should be 100%
@@Sundayschoolnetwork we are not a representative democracy. We are a constitutional republic.
Although what we actually have is more of an Oligarchy these days.
As a veteran of America I demand proofs of citizenship!
Thank you for your service 🇺🇲
Thank you for your service 🇺🇲
Americans are watching and are taking notes! We know we need the SAFE Act now!
Why in the hell has it taken 248 years to specify in law that only American citizens shall be allowed to vote?
Thank you Speaker Johnson, and Chip Roy for fighting for the bill, citizens truly appreciate your efforts! ! !
We are paying very close attention on who votes against this
Shumer and pelosi undoubtedly the pilots of this act, they should be ousted to add aoc and many others that were trump hatersv
TAKE ACTION NOW MR JOHNSON! NOW! TELL US WHAT TO DO LEGALLY! YOURE THE EXPERT !
Absolutely stunning that we even need a bill passed for this.
It’s in our constitution one vote per citizen! Does not include immigrants! They must be citizens!
Legal citizenship no illegals can vote.
So this is redundant and unnecessary, then? So is this Johnson simply grandstanding?
I agree with you whole heartily.
Yes, yes, yes,American citizens ONLY!!!!!
They better support this bill!!!!
And enforce this bill.
@@NellieGirlyes
The democrats wont.
Years ago I remember needing to provide my CDL to Vote, this never should have stopped. Only US Citizens are allowed to Vote PERIOD
In my state we are required to show a photo ID that verifies our name, address. There are places you are designated to vote at. Why doesn’t every state do this?
@@suzyq5629 this bill would mean that a CDL is not enough to register to vote. You'd need a passport or a certificate of naturalization
@@pennybailey6359 every state does do that. This new bill would mean that to register the state would only accept a passport or certificate of naturalization, not a standard drivers license
Yes -- that should be a federal mandate for federal elections, not left to the states. In my state, we still have to show ID, and I'm happy about that.
@@lauriespiker5952 if this bill passes you'd need a passport or similar to register to vote. That takes time and money and it's deliberately designed to shutdown the voices of people who can't afford the cost
This bill should have been given 💯 % approval from both sides of the isles.
If you are not a citizen you have NO RIGHT to cast a vote.
PASS THIS BILL NOW!!
This is beyond obvious that this bill is needed and ENFORCED!
nope. laws already exist. This is redundant and unnecessary. It is a nothing-burger crafted by Mr. Johnson to seem like he cares. He does not.
THIS BILL SHOULD BE VOTED A LONG TIME AGO 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I worked in an elections office and could not take a registration without proper ID.
Why is this even have to be address?!?!? Anyone who does not vote for this should be thrown out of office.
IF we are a representative government all members of Congress should uphold our Constitution and say illegal aliens can't vote.
If the USA was a democracy you wouldn’t only have two parties.
What you have is an establishment rigging democratic elections to benefit the establishment, if it means letting noncitizens vote.
And we can do that without a new bill used to push false claims and fear for the Right wing base.
You're right about that. But they don't want us to have a constitution anymore. And for those who are paying attention knows who ( they) are.
They can't...why all lying? Liars have a special place according to the Bible 😢
