The Supreme Court handed the Trump administration a key election integrity win on the emergency docket Friday, lifting a block on the implementation of a voter verification system that would combine Social Security information with citizenship records.
The high court ruled 6-3, allowing the administration to move forward with modifying the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements database to combine citizenship and Social Security records, something they announced last year in a bid to improve the speed and reliability of verifying a person’s citizenship status. The per curiam ruling issued by the six Republican-appointed justices stated that claims by left-wing groups that the modifications to the SAVE database violated privacy laws, among other federal statutes, likely lacked merit.
