The SAVE Act purports to address illegal voting by non-citizens, which is already against the law. However, imposing stringent documentation requirements will disenfranchise millions of citizens, particularly married women whose legal names differ from their birth certificates. This legislation creates unnecessary barriers for eligible voters while perpetuating the false narrative of widespread illegal voting. Rather than erecting obstacles, the focus should be on expanding access to the ballot box for all Americans. Voting is a fundamental right, and this bill undermines that principle by making it harder for citizens to exercise their civic duty. Reject the SAVE Act and protect the right to vote for all eligible citizens, regardless of name changes due to marriage or other life events.
