Hi John,
We’re writing to you with an urgent action- we need you to tell your legislators to vote NO on the SAVE Act. [[link removed]] The SAVE Act is a bill that poses one of the most dangerous threats to voting rights we’ve seen in years. Built on false claims of voter fraud, this bill would require voters to show documentary proof of citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate, just to register to vote and will require faulty voter roll purges that will disenfranchise eligible voters. If passed, the SAVE Act would erect barriers designed to keep millions of eligible Americans from exercising their right to vote.
The SAVE Act isn’t about safeguarding elections. It’s about silencing voters- and we need you to tell Congress to vote NO on this bill. Congress should be expanding our voting rights- not rolling them back. Fill out this form to email your Representative and urge them to VOTE NO on the SAVE Act.

The SAVE Act doesn’t protect our democracy; it threatens it. If passed, the SAVE Act would:
* Create Barriers for Millions of Voters: Over 21 million Americans lack easy access to the documents this law would require for voter registration.
* Target Marginalized Communities: Voters of color, naturalized citizens, young and older voters, and individuals with low incomes would face the biggest hurdles.
* Increase Erroneous Voter Roll Purges: More frequent and erroneous purges of registered voters, even in some cases voters who have been registered and voted for years.
* Impede Election Administration: This bill imposes significant burdens and costs on state and local election officials - who are already vastly underfunded and understaffed - and imposes criminal and civil liability to their everyday activities.
* Repeat Past Failures: Kansas implemented a similar law over a decade ago that disenfranchised over 35,000 eligible voters before courts struck it down as unconstitutional.
Take action now and help stop this bill from passing. [[link removed]] Click to email your Representative and demand they vote NO on the SAVE Act. Together, we can protect the right to vote and ensure every voice is heard.
