I am writing as your constituent to urge you to take an immediate and clear stand: protect our state's voter data, refuse federal pressure to surrender private citizen information, and defend the constitutional principle that states — not the federal government — run our elections. This is urgent. On February 25, the FBI convened all 50 Secretaries of State on a call with DOJ, DHS, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and the Election Assistance Commission — just days after secretaries gathered in Washington to raise alarms about federal overreach. The Trump administration has already demanded full voter roll data — including Social Security numbers and driver's license numbers — from at least 47 states. It has sued 24 states that refused. Federal courts in California and Oregon have already called these demands "unprecedented and illegal." Handing this data over isn't just dangerous — in many states it may be illegal. A confidential federal agreement obtained by the Brennan Center reveals the DOJ plans to instruct states to remove voters from rolls within 45 days, bypassing the protections the National Voter Registration Act specifically requires. This is voter purging by federal order — something the federal government has never done before and has no legal authority to do. I am asking you to take four clear actions: refuse to turn over private voter roll data to the DOJ; do not run voter rolls through the DHS SAVE database; oppose the SAVE Act, SAVE America Act, and Make Elections Great Again Act; and protect polling places from any unauthorized federal presence. Our neighbors' Social Security numbers, home addresses, and personal records are not bargaining chips. Will you commit to protecting them? Respectfully, A Constituent
