Oppose the SAVE Act (H.R. 22) - A Voter Suppression Bill - House Vote NEXT WEEK
Updates
The House is scheduled to vote on H.R. 22 during the week of March 31st.
Republicans in Congress have introduced the extreme anti-voter Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act (H.R. 22/S.128 and declared it among their top priorities. This bill would hinder millions of eligible Americans from registering to vote by requiring citizens to present a birth certificate or passport in person to register.
Millions of Americans don’t have easy access to these documents.
More than 21.3 million Americans lack immediate access to documentary proof of citizenship.
More than 140 million Americans do not have a passport, and elderly Americans are one of the demographic groups least likely to have one.
69 million women who have taken their spouse’s last name do not have a birth certificate that matches their legal name.
Similarly, transgender people who change their name to reflect their gender identity may be denied new passports and become ineligible to register.
Disabled people are already much more likely to encounter a difficulty while voting compared to a nondisabled voter; more stringent requirements will just make this worse.
Citizens of color are three times more likely than white citizens to lack documents such as birth certificates, passports, naturalization certificates, or certificates of citizenship.
An in-person registration requirement would prevent military members serving abroad from easily registering to vote.
Despite unfounded claims to the contrary, there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud. The SAVE Act is designed to block eligible people from voting, not to protect elections. Demand your representatives oppose the SAVE Act and protect voting rights for all.
Call To Action:
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
“I'm calling to demand that [REP/SEN NAME] oppose H.R. 22, the SAVE Act, which will create unnecessary barriers to voter registration and disenfranchise countless voters, especially women, seniors, and low-income citizens. This bill is designed to block voters despite no real evidence of widespread fraud. [REP/SEN NAME] must vote against it.
Thank you.”
Stop the Attacks on the Federal Court System - Oppose the No Rogue Rulings Act - VOTE WEDS
Federal judges across the country have been consistently ruling against the Trump administration’s many unlawful actions, leading to Trump and Musk demanding the impeachment of judges who rule against them. While Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts issued a rare statement rejecting the impeachment of federal judges, Republicans in Congress are strategizing ways to hamper the independent power of the federal judicial system to ensure that Trump’s clearly unconstitutional decrees can move forward without restraint.
These ideas include congressional hearings and impeachment resolutions against targeted federal judges and blocking funding from district courts that issue rulings Trump doesn’t like. Speaker Mike Johnson also suggested that Congress could completely eliminate entire district courts.
While Republicans struggle to amass sufficient support to impeach judges they don’t like, the House will move forward on a bill introduced by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) that would greatly limit their legal authority. The No Rogue Rulings Act (H.R. 1526) would bar district court judges from issuing nationwide injunctions, the exact type of ruling that has blocked many of Trump’s plans to date.
The House expects to vote on the No Rogue Rulings Act on Wednesday, April 2nd. Demand your representatives vote against this authoritarian attempt to rewrite our federal judicial system and block the necessary system of checks and balances.
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
“I’m calling to demand that [REP/SEN NAME] oppose H.R. 1526, the No Rogue Rulings Act, and any other attempt to rewrite the federal court system. Impeaching judges and changing their constitutional authority just because Trump doesn’t like their rulings is grossly authoritarian and must be stopped. Thank you”
