An Open Letter

To: Rep. Timmons

From: A verified voter in Taylors, SC

February 5

As your constituent, I implore you to oppose H.R. 22, the SAVE Act, which would require citizenship documentation to register to vote despite the fact that voters in every state are already required to affirm or verify their citizenship status when registering. It is already illegal for non-citizens to vote in federal elections. Additionally, state election officials ban non-citizen voting in all state elections and have systems to verify an individual voter’s eligibility and ensure that voter rolls are accurate. The bill’s requirement of a document to prove American citizenship to register to vote in federal elections is unnecessary and creates yet another barrier to voting. Please vote “No,” on the SAVE Act to ensure that every eligible US citizen has the freedom to vote unimpeded by discriminatory rules rooted in fear and division.
