Proof-of-citizenship voting bill push could threaten government shutdown

Sharing is Caring!

A conservative-backed push for stricter proof-of-citizenship requirements for voting could complicate efforts to avert a government shutdown next month.

Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have acknowledged a stopgap of some kind, also known as a continuing resolution (CR), will be necessary to keep the government funded past Sept. 30.

But calls are growing among House conservatives to use that must-pass measure to force consideration of a partisan bill aimed at barring noncitizens from voting – laying the groundwork for a clash with the Democratic-led Senate, which would likely reject such a package.
