Supreme Court Hands Trump Win On Vot­er Cit­i­zen­ship Checks Ahead Of Midterms

A Supreme Court deci­sion on Fri­day will allow the Trump admin­is­tra­tion to work with states to ver­i­fy vot­ers’ cit­i­zen­ship. 
The 6–3 rul­ing allows state offi­cials to use an expand­ed ver­sion of a fed­er­al data­base to ver­i­fy that reg­is­tered vot­ers are cit­i­zens. The data­base, known as the Sys­tem­at­ic Alien Ver­i­fi­ca­tion for Enti­tle­ments (SAVE) pro­gram, was cre­at­ed in 1986 to check the immi­gra­tion sta­tus of nonci­t­i­zens apply­ing for pub­lic ben­e­fit pro­grams and has been used by states for vot­er ver­i­fi­ca­tion since 2005. The Trump admin­is­tra­tion expand­ed it to include Social Secu­ri­ty records and allow offi­cials to check many vot­ers at once.
