I will work to amend the Constitution so that only U.S. citizens can vote in federal elections.

Today, Congresswoman Laurel Lee introduced a constitutional amendment to establish a clear and permanent requirement that only United States citizens may vote in federal elections.

Lee says she is advancing a constitutional amendment to restrict federal voting to U.S. citizens only.

The House bill text for H.J.Res. 152 states: 'Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to ensure that only citizens are eligible to vote in Federal elections.' It was introduced by Ms. Lee of Florida with co-sponsors and was 'referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.'

Lee took concrete legislative action to advance the promise by introducing a constitutional amendment, but the official text shows only introduction and referral, not enactment or even committee passage.

The Congressional Record for March 19, 2026 lists: 'By Ms. LEE of Florida (for herself, Mr. GOODEN, Mr. FRY, Ms. LETLOW, Mr. HARIDOPOLOS, and Mr. HUNT): H.J. Res. 152. A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to ensure that only citizens are eligible to vote in Federal elections; to the Committee on the Judiciary.'

The official House record confirms the proposal was formally introduced and referred to Judiciary, but there is no official evidence in the lookback window of passage, committee markup, or floor action.

Lee's office announced that she 'introduced a constitutional amendment' requiring that 'only United States citizens may vote in federal elections' and said the amendment would 'codify in the Constitution that only U.S. citizens are eligible to vote in elections for President and Vice President, and Members of Congress.'

This is the campaign promise translated into an introduced amendment, but it is still only an introduction and does not show delivery of the constitutional change itself.
