Reject Unilateral Election Changes and SAVE Act Overreach"

To: Sen. Cantwell, Sen. Murray

From: A constituent in Seattle, WA

February 16

Im concerned about the House passage of the SAVE America Act and the President’s statement that “There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!” The Constitution’s Elections Clause grants authority over election rules to the states and, in limited circumstances, to Congress — not to the President. Federal courts have already ruled that unilateral executive changes to federal election procedures are unconstitutional. Congress must defend its institutional authority and the constitutional structure. Members must also consider the practical and political consequences of supporting legislation that risks blocking eligible citizens from the ballot based on debunked claims. I’m counting on you to: • Oppose any attempt by the executive branch to impose election rules without congressional approval. • NOT support ANY provisions that risk disenfranchising lawful voters such as the SAVE Act. • Ensure full Senate scrutiny under regular order, without procedural shortcuts. • Conduct meaningful oversight of the SAVE database expansion to guarantee accuracy and protect citizens’ rights.
