BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. WILLIAMS of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of H.R. 8281, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, known as the SAVE Act.

It should not be controversial to say that Americans should decide who Americans vote for. As a former Texas secretary of state, I know the importance of election security.

Now more than ever, with Biden's border invasion releasing millions of illegal immigrants into our country, we must ensure that only American citizens can vote.

The SAVE Act does just that. This legislation will require proof of citizenship for voters to register for Federal elections and will empower States to clean up their voter rolls. It is critical that we safeguard our elections.

Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to put America first and pass the SAVE Act. In God we trust.
