Noem boasts of Trump administration ensuring ‘we have the right people voting’ ahead of midterms
DHS Secretary Noem supports legislation requiring voter citizenship proof and emphasizes preventing fraud to ensure election trust and reliability in 2026 midterms.
- On Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the administration is working to ensure 'the right people' vote ahead of the 2026 midterms, remarks she repeated at a Saturday press event in Arizona.
- After an FBI raid of a Georgia election hub last month, Noem said elections are a 'critical infrastructure' responsibility for DHS.
- Backing legislation, Noem praised the crackdown on voter fraud and supported the SAVE Act to require proof of U.S. citizenship, saying it would close loopholes so only Americans vote.
- Critics including David Axelrod and Daniel Goldman denounced Noem, with some calling to withhold DHS funding, after her remarks were called 'saying the quiet part out loud'.
- Noem urged Republicans to take over voting in at least 15 places, a stance critics say exceeds DHS's remit, amid broader partisan debates on election control.
