Chuck Schumer Makes Massive Gaffe While Ramping Up Hysteria Against Voter Integrity Bill

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer claimed that the SAVE America Act would enable Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to remove “tens of billions of people” from voter rolls on Tuesday.

The SAVE America Act would mandate documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration and require photo identification for federal elections, along with directing states to confirm citizenship and remove non-citizens from federal voter rolls. Schumer took issue with a reporter characterizing the bill as a voter ID law and resorted to alarmist rhetoric during a press conference.

“heir bill isn’t voter ID … It is about voter registration. It allows ICE to kick tens of billions of people off the rolls, off the rolls,” Schumer said. “And they don’t tell them until election day and you show up and you say, ‘You’re not registered anymore, you’re not registered here. You’re not on the rolls.’ And they say, ‘I didn’t know that.’ This is a bill that destroys the country.”

“And it is not about showing ID when you show up to vote. It’s about the voter registration rolls — destroying them, purging them, not letting people know and taking the rights in a algorithm put together by ICE, put together by DOGE and Musk,” he continued. “It’s an outrage. And that’s why so many people don’t want to pass it.”

The reporter who pressed Schumer on his opposition to the bill noted that voter ID was widely supported
