Hi John —

Be sure to take a moment to let your member of Congress know that you want them to OPPOSE the SAVE Act, a dangerous voter suppression bill, before it comes to the House floor for a vote later this month.

This bill would require voters to produce one of an extremely narrow list of documents to prove US citizenship in order to participate in our most fundamental freedom to vote.

At VoteRiders, we know firsthand how hard it is for eligible voters to participate in the face of voter ID laws. The SAVE Act would seriously endanger the voting rights of millions.
Let's work together to stop this bad bill! Send your message today. >> [link removed]

Thanks!

Subject: [TAKE ACTION] Protect Our Vote!

Dear John,

I know there’s a fire hose of news coming at you every day, but I have to alert you to a dangerous new bill in Congress that would stop millions of eligible voters from voting . Its effects would devastate our democracy, and it’s critical we take action to stop it now.

The so-called SAVE Act is a voter suppression bill that would require voters to produce one of an extremely narrow list of documents to prove US citizenship in order to participate in our most fundamental freedom to vote. If passed, tens of millions of Americans would face a powerful new barrier to participation.

For VoteRiders’ entire history, our organization has focused on direct assistance and voter education. Today, in the face of the dangerous outcomes of the SAVE Act that would deny so many voters their rights, we need to do more . We must work together to stop this bill.

Will you take a few minutes to contact your representatives and ask them to stop the SAVE Act before it causes millions of Americans to lose their right to vote?

VoteRiders’ research — as well as over a decade of our hands-on experience helping people secure their IDs and underlying documents — shows that 21.3 million Americans (that’s almost 1 in 10 voting-age citizens) do not have easy access to proof of citizenship documents like a birth certificate. Nearly 150 million US citizens do not have a passport.

Federal law already requires that voters verify their identity and US citizenship at the time that they register. The SAVE Act is both harmful and unnecessary.

Congress should focus on protecting our right to vote, not adding difficult steps that will keep people from making their voices heard.

Please, reach out to your elected officials today and urge them to OPPOSE the SAVE Act. >> [link removed]

In solidarity,
