Trump Signs Executive Order Requiring Proof of U.S. Citizenship to Vote in 2025 Elections
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order aimed at ensuring the integrity of American elections by requiring proof of U.S. citizenship to vote starting in 2025. The order, announced on March 26, 2025, mandates that all states implement systems to verify the citizenship status of voters, aiming to prevent non-citizens from participating in federal elections.
The White House released a statement emphasizing the importance of this measure in preserving the sanctity of the electoral process. Critics, however, argue that the order could disenfranchise eligible voters and place an undue burden on state election systems. The order comes amidst ongoing debates about voter fraud and election security, with Trump's administration pushing for stricter voting regulations.
In Phoenix, local reactions to the order were mixed, with some residents expressing support for the measure while others voiced concerns over potential voter suppression. The order has sparked a nationwide discussion on the balance between election security and voter access, with implications for future electoral processes.
