Tell Your Senator: Protect Voting Rights, Reject the SAVE America Act! Republicans are trying to pass a new version of the anti-voter SAVE Act — their latest attack on our voting rights. This “SAVE America Act” would be the biggest federal rollback of voting rights in our country’s history, particularly burdening 146 million Americans who don’t have a passport, millions who can’t easily access a birth certificate, rural voters, voters of color, voters with disabilities, survivors of climate disasters, and the tens of millions of people — including 69 million married women — who have changed their names. Tell your Senator: keep elections free and fair — stop the SAVE America Act!

Every eligible voter, no matter their race, income, ability, or zip code, has the right to choose their own leaders through free and fair elections. Generations of civil rights activists put their lives on the line to secure these rights, but now Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to rip them away.

If passed, the SAVE America Act would imperil the fundamental rights of millions of voters across the country, roll back mail voting, cause legitimate voters’ ballots to be thrown out, and make voter registration harder for over 100 million eligible voters. We can’t let this happen.

This bill would hurt communities across the country, including those already suffering from exposure to toxic pollution and other environmental injustices. It would particularly burden 146 million Americans who don’t have a passport, millions who can’t easily access a birth certificate, rural voters, voters of color, voters with disabilities, survivors of climate disasters, and the tens of millions of people — including 69 million married women — who have changed their names.

Collective grassroots pressure from LCV members like you is essential. Together, we must compel the Senate to reject this attack on our democracy and our ability to choose our own leaders through free and fair elections — so we can all continue advocating for the well-being of people and the planet.

Thank you for your commitment to supporting free and fair elections, and to the safe, just, and equitable future we all deserve.
