Florida's Republican-controlled legislature has approved House Bill 991, requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration and eliminating student and retirement home IDs at the polls, in a move that mirrors the federal SAVE America Act. Critics warn the law could disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of eligible voters — including naturalized citizens, college students, and seniors — to address a problem that the state's own data shows affected just 198 individuals out of more than 13 million registered voters.
