Stop the SAVE Act Bureaucracy

Your claimed commitment to protecting the families and economies of your District is directly contradicted by your refusal to oppose the SAVE America Act. Forcing a radical, unfunded federal architecture onto local election systems is an attack on the very constituents you represent. The logistical reality of this bill is not security; it is a bureaucratic barrier designed to strip eligible Arizonans of their constitutional voice. The strict Documentary Proof of Citizenship (DPOC) requirements inflict severe, direct hardships across our district: Massive Population At Risk: Applying the verified 10% documentation gap to our district's recent voter turnout data reveals that over 43,000 eligible local voters are at immediate risk of disenfranchisement simply because they lack instant access to certified passports or birth certificates. Disenfranchising Working Families: Mandating in-person document presentation eliminates mail-in and online registrations. This forces low-wage workers to lose hourly pay and travel long distances to county recorder offices just to register. Trapping Seniors and Married Women: Up to 14% of older seniors lack original vital records. Furthermore, one-third of married women do not have citizenship documents matching their current legal names, forcing them to navigate invasive, costly bureaucratic hurdles. Operational Collapse: By providing zero federal funding for the massive administrative overhauls required to manually verify physical documents, this bill shifts a catastrophic financial and legal liability burden directly onto local Arizona taxpayers. Using our district's working families, seniors, and rural communities as collateral damage for partisan theater is an ethical failure. I demand that you publicly break from leadership, oppose the SAVE America Act in any upcoming budget reconciliation vote, and commit to overriding any executive veto holding vital legislation hostage.
