Voter Integrity Protection Act

This bill creates stronger penalties for non-U.S. citizens who are in the country illegally and vote in federal elections. Under current law, non-U.S. citizens already cannot vote in federal elections, but this bill would make it an "aggravated felony" when someone who is in the country illegally does vote. An aggravated felony conviction has serious immigration consequences and can prevent someone from becoming a U.S. citizen. The bill also says that non-U.S. citizens who are in the country illegally and knowingly vote in federal elections can be deported.
