Claim by Senator Duckworth: “9% of American citizens don’t have the identification that the SAVE act requires to vote. Almost 1 in 10.”
PolitiFact rating: Mostly True
A 2023 national survey found about 9% of U.S. adult citizens either lack or cannot readily access documentary proof of citizenship, and a similar share lack a nonexpired driver’s license. However, the figure includes people who may have documents but cannot easily access them, and the survey was not limited specifically to registered voters.
