Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit Tuesday, accusing the Biden administration of failing to help Texas verify the citizenship status of its voters—a move he claims is required by federal law.
Paxton had already asked Secretary of State Jane Nelson to request federal data to weed out any ineligible voters. Nelson followed through, but the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) simply referred her to its Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, The Texas Tribune reports.
