The "Business Over Ballots Act" aims to prevent the Small Business Administration (SBA) from engaging in voter registration activities. It restricts the SBA Administrator from taking actions to facilitate voter registration unless explicitly authorized by federal law, and prohibits recipients of SBA assistance from using funds for voter registration purposes. The bill asserts that supporting voter registration is outside the SBA's mission and legal authority.

The "Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act" mandates that individuals provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections. It amends the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to include these requirements and directs states to reject applications lacking such proof. The Act also outlines acceptable forms of documentation, verification processes, and penalties for non-compliance, while allowing provisional ballots under certain conditions. Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security must notify state election officials when an individual becomes a naturalized citizen.
