   Hi,
   Donald Trump's second term approval ratings just hit an all-time low, and
   even he admits that Republicans are in serious danger of losing control of
   Congress in next year's midterm elections.^1,2
   So Trump is doing everything in his power to rig the midterms.
   The centerpiece of Trump's attack on our elections in Congress is a bill
   called the SAVE Act, which would disenfranchise tens of millions of voters
   by requiring them to show a birth certificate or passport that must match
   their current name when they register to vote.^3
   The SAVE Act already passed the House of Representatives, and we need your
   help to ramp up our efforts to stop this awful legislation in the Senate.

   Trump has been laying the groundwork to overturn the results of the
   midterm elections for months.^4
   In March, he issued an executive order claiming federal control of our
   election systems nationwide and requiring voters to provide proof of
   citizenship when registering through a federal registration form.^5
   The order also threatens to cut federal election funding from states that
   accept mail-in ballots after Election Day, a major blow to mail-in voting,
   and ordered the Department of Homeland Security to subpoena state voter
   registration lists as part of a potential nationwide voter purge.^6,7
   However, an executive order doesn't carry the force of law, and many of
   its provisions are being challenged in court.^8
   The SAVE Act would escalate these attacks and lock them into law,
   disenfranchising tens of millions of eligible voters. Married women,
   transgender people, immigrants, and anyone who has changed their name or
   recently moved would be especially affected.^9
   It's essential for the survival of our democracy that the 2026 midterm
   elections remain free and fair, and so we must stop the SAVE Act from
   passing in the Senate.
   Demand Progress Action has already mobilized tens of thousands of people
   to contact Congress and defend the midterms. Now, in the face of these
   rising threats, we must ramp it up.
