Federal prosecutors filed indictments against 16 people accused of casting ballots without citizenship. These defendants, including non-citizens from Mexico, Nigeria, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, allegedly used false claims of U.S. citizenship to register for federal elections. Some individuals are additionally charged with wire fraud, passport fraud, and naturalization fraud.

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin reported 151 arrests and 1,620 open investigations into suspected voter fraud. Federal officials identify suspects by matching immigration records with state voter data, a process currently reviewing 300,000 records. Recent actions include the arrest of Rocio Thrasher in Texas, who allegedly falsely declared citizenship in June 2024 to vote in the November general election.
