Judge Blocks Trump's Voter Database
Description
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s SAVE system, a controversial database designed to flag noncitizens on voter rolls, ruling it violates decades-old privacy protections and risks disenfranchising eligible voters. Despite claims of combating “alien voting,” the judge emphasized the tool’s potential to wrongly remove citizens from voter lists and undermine democracy. Advocacy groups supported the lawsuit, noting noncitizen voter rates are minuscule — just 0.04%. The Department of Homeland Security now faces legal limits on its efforts to centralize voter citizenship data.
