Non-citizens are getting voter registration forms all over the US through welfare agencies without requiring proof of citizenship. In every state with the exception of Arizona, applicants for welfare benefits or driver's licenses can receive voter registration forms without needing proof of citizenship.
Under current law, there is no requirement to give proof of citizenship on voter registration forms, even though it is illegal for a non-citizen to claim they are a citizen in order to vote in a federal election, per a new report from the New York Post. However, millions of immigrants, both illegal and illegal, are sometimes eligible for welfare benefits that allow them to obtain voter registration forms.
The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 required that states register voters either at agencies where people can apply for public benefits or at the Department of Motor Vehicles.
