Preserve Voting Rights; Oppose the SAVE Act

I am writing today to insist that you OPPOSE the SAVE Act. The bill would require Americans to show documents like a passport or a birth certificate to register or re-register to vote. More than 21 million Americans don’t have these documents readily available. If the bill passes, more than 21 million Americans could be blocked from voting. Younger people, married women, and voters of color are especially likely to be impacted. The bill’s requirement that voters produce these documents “in person” would also upend most voter registration methods — including registering online and by mail. The SAVE Act would be the first voter suppression bill ever passed by Congress. Lawmakers should be protecting the freedom to vote — not restricting it. This bill is about furthering voter suppression - which is a much bigger problem than voter fraud. Reject the SAVE Act.
