WASHINGTON: Today, Committee on House Administration (CHA) Chairman Bryan Steil (WI-01), Committee on the Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (OH-04), CHA Vice Chair Laurel Lee (FL-15), and Rep. Jefferson Van Drew (NJ-02) sent a letter to New Jersey’s chief elections officer, Lt. Governor Dale Caldwell, seeking documents and communications after the State admitted to adding 6,600 non-citizens to their voter rolls.  
 

Approximately 400 of those non-citizens have voted in an election.  
 

Below is an excerpt pulled from the letter: 

“The Committees are concerned about of the application of federal law in New Jersey as it pertains to accurate voter registration, as well as the effect that New Jersey’s failure to identify and remove noncitizens from its voter rolls has on the civil liberties of American voters and their ability to elect their representatives."  
 

“Compliance with the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA), the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), and the Civil Rights Act of 1960 (CRA) is paramount to defend fundamental American civil liberties and electoral integrity.” 
 

The State has until August 17 to comply with this request. Read the full letter here.
