Trump Administration Sharing Voter Data Across Agencies, DHS Confirms [View all]
The Trump administration Thursday confirmed that voter registration data being collected by the Department of Justice (DOJ) is being shared with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as part of a broad push to remove noncitizens from the rolls.
“Under President Trump’s leadership, the government is finally doing what it should have all along — sharing information to solve problems,” an unnamed DHS spokesperson wrote in a statement to Democracy Docket. “This collaboration with the DOJ will lawfully and critically enable DHS to prevent illegal aliens from corrupting our republic’s democratic process and further ensure the integrity of our elections nationwide. Elections exist for the American people to choose their leaders, not illegal aliens.”
“Information sharing across agencies is essential to identify who is in our country, including violent criminals, determine what public safety and terror threats may exist so we can address them, scrub aliens from voter rolls, and identify what public benefits illegal aliens are using at taxpayer expense,” the DHS spokesperson added.
The assertion that illegal citizens vote in large numbers, often repeated by Trump, has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked.
