Stop the SAVE Act

U.S. CONGRESS:

Congress must immediately reject the SAVE Act in all its forms. This bill would create sweeping new barriers to voting by requiring many Americans to show documents like a passport or birth certificate just to register or stay registered, blocking millions of eligible citizens from the ballot. It would disproportionately harm women who have changed their names, voters of color, young people, rural communities, people with disabilities, and low-income voters, while throwing election administration into chaos and exposing election officials to severe penalties for honest mistakes. The SAVE Act solves no actual problem. Noncitizen voting is already illegal and exceedingly rare. This legislation is a deliberate attempt to suppress turnout and weaken our democracy ahead of a critical election year.

I urge you to vote NO on the SAVE Act in all its forms and defend the fundamental right to vote for every eligible American.

House Republicans are fast tracking a dangerous voter suppression bill ahead of a crucial midterm election year. As early as next week, the House is expected to vote on H.R. 7296, the SAVE America Act, part of a renewed push to pass the SAVE Act in all its forms.

This bill would make it far harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote. It would require many voters to show documents like a passport or birth certificate just to register or stay registered, even though nearly half of Americans do not have a passport and more than 21 million lack ready access to these documents. Women who have changed their names, young voters, voters of color, rural voters, people with disabilities, and low-income Americans would be hit hardest.

The SAVE Act would also upend election administration by dismantling online and mail registration, crippling voter registration drives, inviting reckless voter purges, and placing massive unfunded burdens on election officials, who could even face penalties for honest mistakes.

Noncitizen voting is already illegal and exceedingly rare. The SAVE Act solves no actual problem. It is an attempt to silence voters before they can hold politicians accountable.
