Maria Bartiromo, host of Fox Business's Mornings with Maria, engaged Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) in a discussion regarding the SAVE America Act. Bartiromo stated, "What’s the problem? Get your birth certificate," emphasizing the need for proof of citizenship to vote. The SAVE America Act, which has passed the House, aims to require such proof for voter registration but is currently stalled in the Senate due to insufficient Republican support to overcome a Democratic filibuster. Khanna defended existing voter verification practices and expressed concerns about the potential burden of new documentation requirements on eligible voters. He stated that while noncitizen voting is illegal, the focus should be on enforcing current laws rather than imposing additional hurdles. Bartiromo countered that requiring proof of citizenship is a reasonable measure to ensure election integrity, sharing her own experience of obtaining her birth certificate as evidence that the process is manageable. Khanna reiterated that enforcing existing laws is the priority and that imposing additional requirements could hinder eligible voters.
