The Senate is currently on recess until September 11. During this time, the League is encouraging members and supporters to visit their Senator’s state offices, call their offices, or send our action alert opposing the SAVE Act.
Senate Majority Leader Thune may allow Senators to vote on the SAVE Act again before the November midterm elections. When they return from recess in September, they will have a couple of weeks to try to vote on the SAVE Act. We need to send them back to DC ready to oppose this voter suppression bill!
It’s time for us to remind them how we feel about the SAVE Act. This bill would require citizenship documentation to register to vote, even though voters in every state are already required to affirm or verify their citizenship status when registering. Additionally, the bill will make voting more difficult by mandating that voters prove their identity using a photo ID from a strict list when casting a ballot.
It is already illegal for non-citizens to register and vote in federal or state elections. Plus, we have processes to ensure our elections are secure and that only eligible voters are casting ballots. State election officials have systems to verify an individual voter’s eligibility and ensure voter rolls are accurate.
Legislation like the SAVE Act is part of a long list of tactics that seek to make it more difficult for voters of color and naturalized citizens to vote. Americans do not need MORE obstacles to vote. The League will not stand idly by, and we need your help to stop these unnecessary requirements.
