Original Note:
Citizenship requirements are considered to be voter suppression, because marginalized communities and those of colour are less likely to have ID available at the time of voting. This form of suppression was widely used in the past to disenfranchise black and indigenous voters. https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2021/05/politics/black-voting-rights-suppression-timeline/
