The Republican Party is actively advocating for proof of citizenship laws to ensure voter eligibility, but this initiative has encountered considerable resistance across various states. Critics warn that proposed voter suppression bills could disenfranchise millions ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, particularly affecting married women and other vulnerable groups. While Texas has seen attempts to implement proof-of-citizenship requirements, these efforts have largely stalled amidst legal hurdles and public opposition. Experts suggest that such laws may create unnecessary barriers for registered voters, raising questions about their practicality and impact on voter turnout.
