John,

Last week, the Senate failed to pass the SAVE Act, one of the most dangerous voter suppression bills in recent memory. The SAME DAY, Republicans tried to bring it back under a different name.

The "SAVE America Through REAL ID Act" is designed to revive key pieces of the same anti-voting agenda by sneaking it through Congress using the budget reconciliation process, allowing Republicans to pass it without any Democratic support.

The goal is the same: make voting harder. This time they’ll do it by incentivizing states to build the infrastructure for stricter ID rules at the polls. It’s a direct attack on Black voters, low-income families, seniors, students, and rural residents.

We organized to stop the SAVE Act, and we’ll organize to stop this attack too, but we need to move quickly.

Tell Congress: Reject the SAVE America Through REAL ID Act and protect our freedom to vote.

For generations, attacks on voting rights have been dressed up as "election security." During Jim Crow, politicians used poll taxes, literacy tests, intimidation, and violence to keep Black people from voting. After the Voting Rights Act outlawed many of those tactics, efforts to restrict access to the ballot box did not disappear — they evolved. Voter ID laws became one of the new tools used to make voting harder while claiming to make elections more secure.

The language changes, but the target is the same: prevent Black people from voting.

That is why the SAVE Act was so dangerous. And now, this new bill would spend $50 million each year helping states expand REAL ID systems, laying the groundwork for future voter ID laws making voting harder, more expensive, and more inaccessible.

We know who will pay the price.

At a moment when the Supreme Court has gutted the Voting Rights Act, states are rushing to eliminate majority-Black districts, and politicians are openly targeting Black political power, we must demand Congress expand access to the ballot box — not create new obstacles.

Black communities have fought too hard and sacrificed too much to watch politicians resurrect voter suppression efforts any way they can. That is why we must act now.

Add your name and tell Congress to reject the SAVE America Through REAL ID Act before it becomes the next vehicle for restricting voting access across the country.

We have seen this playbook before. When one voter suppression scheme fails, another appears. When one barrier falls, another is built. The only reason these attacks keep failing is because people speak out and fight back. Let's do it again.
