🚨 ICE has investigated hundreds of U.S. nonprofits that help people register to vote — and even considered using undercover agents to do so. It’s part of the Trump administration’s resource-intensive search for an exceptionally rare issue: illegal voting by noncitizens ➡️ demdock.com/4jfx4n7
The image features a quote discussing potential undercover operations by ICE targeting organizations for illegal alien voter registration. The quote highlights the use of undercover agents. In the background, a person holds a sign reading "Register to Vote Here.
