The proposed SAVE Act would impose overly burdensome requirements for voter registration that risk disenfranchising eligible citizens. Requiring documentary proof of citizenship presents significant barriers, particularly for vulnerable groups like married women whose documentation may not reflect their current name, and transgender individuals whose documentation may not align with their identity. This legislation raises grave concerns about voter suppression and infringing on the fundamental right to vote. I urge you to reject this bill and instead support measures to make voting more accessible for all eligible citizens. Erecting unnecessary hurdles undermines our democracy and the principles of equal protection under the law.
