Mike Lee Delivers Emphatic Defense Of The SAVE America Act In Senate Floor Speech

Published | Video Starts at 03:48

As of just Friday, the Department of Homeland Security announced that there are 278,000, that's over a quarter of a million noncitizens registered to vote in US elections in just four states alone. This doesn't count all of them. This is 278,000 noncitizen votes just in the states of California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Nevada. Now that, Mr. President, is a problem.
