the legislation would require states to regularly cross-check their voter rolls to remove any non-citizens who illegally registered
Require states to regularly cross-check voter rolls to remove non-citizens who were illegally registered.
Occurrences
Evidence
The official Tom Barrett House homepage's latest-news section, as displayed on June 4, 2026, lists 'Barrett Launches Fifth Pillar of Blueprint for a Better America to Reform Campaign Finance' and a June 3, 2026 town hall item; it does not show any new public action in the lookback window on cross-checking voter rolls or removing non-citizens from voter rolls.
Assessments
Barrett has not delivered this promise into federal law. In the 119th Congress he co-sponsored H.R. 22, the SAVE Act, whose text would require states to take ongoing steps to ensure only U.S. citizens remain registered, permit use of DHS SAVE and SSA data to identify noncitizens, and require removal of noncitizens from voter rolls. Congress.gov shows that bill passed the House on April 10, 2025 and was then received in the Senate, but it had not become law as of June 12, 2026. That is a serious same-term legislative attempt closely aligned with the promise, but the promised nationwide requirement was still not enacted.
