Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk thinks Democrats will oppose former President Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson's (R-La.) proposed legislation that would require proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration.

What Happened: Musk took to X, former Twitter, to comment on a new bill introduced by Speaker Johnson and Trump.

The tech mogul has previously voiced his dismay over the lack of a photo ID requirement to vote in 42 out of 50 U.S. states.
