Hi John,

Welcome back to The Good, The Bad, The Ugly — your go-to source for the latest in voting rights. Congress is at a critical crossroads. The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act pushes to protect voters from discrimination, while the SAVE Act and restrictive state laws — like New Hampshire’s new voter ID rule — are creating barriers that could disenfranchise millions. Buckle up as we break down the wins, the setbacks, and the urgent fights ahead in the battle for our democracy. 😉

😃 THE GOOD: The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act has been reintroduced in the U.S. House of Representatives. This critical legislation would require federal oversight of voting rule changes that discriminate against voters based on race or background and restore critical parts of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Passing this bill is essential to protecting the fundamental right to vote for all Americans.

😠 THE BAD: New Hampshire's new voter ID law requires all voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers, when they register to vote. This change caused difficulties in recent local elections [[link removed]], particularly for women with name changes due to marriage or divorce — creating unnecessary barriers to voting. Despite legal challenges, the law remains in effect.

😡 THE UGLY: Congress is set to vote on the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a dangerous bill that could disenfranchise more than 20 million eligible voters. If passed, it would impose strict in-person voter registration requirements, demand hard-to-access citizenship documents like passports or matching birth certificates, and eliminate mail, online, and third-party voter registration — disproportionately impacting young voters, Black and Brown voters, women, and rural communities.

This bill is a blatant attack on voting rights, using false narratives about voter fraud to silence our voices and make it harder for us to advocate for healthcare, jobs, and economic security.

John, if the SAVE Act passes the House, it will move to the Senate — where it needs 60 votes to clear the way to the president’s desk. We cannot let that happen. This is our moment to take action. Here’s what you can do right now:

I’ll be back soon with more important voting news and updates.
