House Speaker Mike Johnson wants to force a government shutdown over noncitizens voting in US elections.

He wants to pass a bill that would require proof of citizenship for every American to register to vote.

Critics say it's already illegal for noncitizens to vote and the risk of prosecution is an effective deterrent.

A 2004 ballot initiative that created a requirement for proof of citizenship to register to vote in Arizona disenfranchised 47,000 people.

In 2022 , Georgia announced the results of the first -ever citizenship review of its voter rolls.

An admitted glitch in Pennsylvania ’s voter registration process enabled noncitizens legally in the US to unwittingly register.

At least 168 unauthorized people are thought to have been registered to vote between 2006 and 2017 .
