'Allows ICE to kick tens of billions' off voter rolls? Schumer’s SAVE Act claims keep getting worse.
Schumer previously said the bill 'would disenfranchise over 21 MILLION Americans.'
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is facing intense criticism after making bizarre claims about the SAVE Act, including a gaffe suggesting the bill would disenfranchise "tens of billions" of people.
The legislation, which requires proof of U.S. citizenship for federal voter registration, has become a flash point in the debate over election integrity. While criticizing the bill on Tuesday, Schumer delivered a statement that quickly went viral for its impossible figures.
'There is ZERO validity to these claims.'
“It allows ICE to kick tens of billions of people off the [voter] rolls, off the rolls,” Schumer said, "and they don't tell them until Election Day."
The statement spread quickly online because the figure exceeds the world’s total population. Schumer has repeatedly argued that the SAVE Act, also called the SAVE America Act, would disenfranchise voters.
