Requiring documentary proof of American citizenship to register to vote in federal elections is unnecessary and creates another barrier to voting.
Many eligible voters would be unnecessarily burdened by the requirements of the SAVE Act. Among them:
🫡 Military voters, who would be required to present documentation every time they re-register to vote when their family moves.
🌪️ Voters who have been impacted by natural disasters and lost important documentation, who would be required to jump through hoops to replace these documents while also going through the traumatic process of rebuilding their lives.
💍 Married women, who would also be required to secure updated documentation to register to vote.
The SAVE Act would create a barrier to the voting process, as many eligible voters do not have easy access to the necessary documents.
OPPOSE the SAVE Act suite of bills.
