DHS investigation claim

DHS says it initiated multiple investigations into allegations of noncitizen voting and registration. It claims that reviewing public voter files from four states that had not used SAVE revealed more than 250,000 illegally registered noncitizens; the page does not provide the underlying records or methodology.

SAVE screening figures

As of June 22, 2026, DHS reports that 25 states had processed more than 68 million registration records through SAVE. DHS says the screening enabled those states to identify more than 400,000 deceased registrants and more than 28,000 noncitizens who had registered to vote; these are the document’s reported figures, not independently demonstrated findings on the page.

SAVE service limitation

The summary says many USCIS SAVE enhancements had been suspended pending appeal because of a judicial ruling, while framing that development as creating a risk to citizens’ votes. The page supplies no adjudicated finding that such vote dilution occurred.
