John, did you see our message last week?
Far-right groups are doubling down on this anti-voter scheme – and we need to flood the zone to push back.
TAKE ACTION: Tell the EAC you oppose this blatant voter suppression rule – and if you've already taken action, share this email with three of your friends or family >>
You can read our message below from last week for more information about why we must stop this anti-voter scheme:
John, Stephen Miller’s war on democracy isn’t just happening inside Trump’s administration – his extremist allies are pushing it on the outside, too.
That’s right. A far-right legal group that Stephen Miller co-founded is trying to impose a national “show your papers” rule that’s straight from the GOP’s failed anti-voter SAVE Act. It would force Americans to show costly documents like passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. [1]
It’s a voter suppression scheme that could silence millions of eligible Americans. Miller’s allies have already flooded the Elections Assistance Commission (EAC) with thousands of comments – we need your voice to push back now.
John, can we count on you to submit a quick comment? Take action here >>
Let’s be clear about what’s happening here: Trump and MAGA think they can’t win free and fair elections – so their plan is to make voting harder for the people who would vote them out.
But their unpopular SAVE Act already failed in Congress, and this “show your papers” tactic was blocked by the courts when Trump tried to impose it by executive order.
That’s why they’re trying to sneak this rule in through the back door. We have until October 20th to push back. If enough of us speak out and flood the EAC with public opposition, we can stop this voter suppression scheme in its tracks.
TAKE ACTION: Tell the EAC you oppose this blatant voter suppression rule. Submit your comment now – it only takes a minute >>
Thanks for all you do,
The team at Common Cause
