The SAVE Act would require in-person proof of citizenship for any citizen to register or re-register to vote. Voter registrants may use their passports to prove citizenship. However, standard driver's licenses or state ID cards alone do not prove citizenship in most states. Instead, state ID cards must be presented along with certified birth certificates, and for those whose birth name no longer matches their current name, additional documentation, such as a marriage license, is also required. Only around 43% of Americans currently hold a passport, and certified birth certificates and other documentation can be costly and time consuming to procure.
