Indivisibles,

If we’re going to come out of the next four years with our democracy
somewhat intact, we’ve got to do everything within our power to ensure
fair elections in 2026. Which is why we absolutely, positively must stop
the voter suppression bill known as the SAVE Act from becoming law.

Many, many of you have written us about the SAVE Act already. It’s popping
up in the news and all over social media because it is, put simply, the
biggest threat to voting rights we’ve seen in a generation. So we wanted
to reach out to talk about our strategy for blocking this bill -- and
ask some of you to make a call or send an email to help. 

What is the SAVE Act? 

The SAVE Act is an attempt at mass disenfranchisement disguised as an
election integrity bill. It would require every voter to show proof of
citizenship bearing their current name when registering to vote -- which
might not seem like a big deal, unless you spend two seconds thinking
about the ramifications. 

* Overnight, it’d essentially end online and mail-in voter
registration. 
* Proof of citizenship doesn’t mean a simple driver’s license. It means
a birth certificate or a passport – documents that tens of millions of
citizens simply don’t have access to. 
* Married people who’ve changed their names wouldn’t be able to register
using their original birth certificates – effectively disenfranchising
millions of women. 
* The burdensome requirements would disproportionately impact younger
voters (how many college students do you know who have a birth
certificate stashed in their dorm rooms?), voters of color, low-income
voters, and elder voters. 
* Arizona and Kansas tried similar legislation and [ [link removed] ]tens of thousands
of eligible voters were disenfranchised. 

And what’s the justification for unleashing all that chaos? Republicans
would tell you this bill is desperately needed to stop non-citizens from
voting in national elections -- a nonexistent problem invented by Donald
Trump to prop up his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. It’s
something that pretty much never happens, is already illegal, and that
states have plenty of safeguards in place to prevent it already. So to
repeat: This is not an election integrity bill. It’s a voter suppression
bill.

Here’s how we stop it. 

Let’s start with the good news: We absolutely, 100% can stop this bill
from becoming law, even with Democrats being in the minority in the House
and Senate. 

The dynamics here are pretty simple: Republicans are fully united around
this bill. Most Dems are staunchly opposed, but some are still reeling
from the election and think supporting extreme immigration-adjacent
legislation will make them look big and tough. We saw it a few weeks ago
with the passage of the Laken Riley Act. We need to put a lot of pressure
on these specific Dems to ensure they vote no -- especially in the Senate,
where Republicans need Democratic votes to overcome the filibuster. 

House Strategy 

The SAVE Act could get a vote in the House as early as next week. And
short of a miracle, it’s going to pass. Yep, we’re not going to dance
around it. It’s likely going to pass the House. There are many cases where
the Republicans’ miniscule majority and internal infighting/chaos mean
that there’s a path to killing a Republican bill by peeling off a few
Republican votes. But this is a signature MAGA campaign issue, and we
expect every Republican to vote for it. Which means even if every Dem
votes no, it’ll advance to the Senate. 

And yet, we’re still going to ask some of you to call your Democratic
representatives on this one. And the reason is, as ludicrous as it sounds,
when bills pass the House with some Democratic support, wobbly Democratic
senators become more likely to support them too. We need Dems in the House
to vote no to ensure that Democratic senators don’t capitulate. 

So, if you are represented by: Shomari Figures, Josh Harder, Jared
Moskowitz, April McClain Delaney, Kristen McDonald Rivet, Jared Golden,
Donald Davis, Tom Suozzi, John Mannion, Susie Lee, Marcy Kaptur, Vicente
Gonzalez, Henry Cuellar or Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, please call today and
urge them to vote no. And then share the page with friends in your
district!

Note: We are focusing our outreach on these members because of their
recent voting history (this session or last) and because we haven’t seen a
public statement about how they intend to vote on this bill. 

 

Senate Strategy 

If we do what we need to, this bill is going to die in the Senate. 60
votes are required to overcome a filibuster, and Republicans only have 53
seats. That means they need seven Dems to help them get this across the
finish line.

Could there possibly be seven Democrats willing to vote for this horrible
bill? We hope not -- but only a few weeks ago, twelve Dems voted for the
Laken Riley Act -- one of the cruelest anti-immigrant bills in years (and
constitutionally dubious, to boot). 

So, if you are represented by one of those twelve senators -- Catherine
Cortez Masto, John Fetterman, Ruben Gallego, Maggie Hassan, Mark Kelly,
John Ossoff, Gary Peters, Jacky Rosen, Jeanne Shaheen, Elissa Slotkin,
Mark Warner, or Raphael Warnock -- please call them today and urge them to
vote no. And then urge friends in your state to call as well!

Don’t have a Member of Congress on either list?

Between President Trump, Chancellor Musk, and the heinous legislation
Republicans are introducing every day, [ [link removed] ]there’s a LOT to be talking to
your elected officials about right now. We don’t want to pile on by asking
you to make calls or sending emails that aren’t urgently needed. 

That said, there’s no harm in calling. It’s good for Republicans to know
constituents are paying attention to the harm this bill would do. It’s
good for Dems taking the right position on this bill to get a thank you
call. The call and email tools above will work for every representative
and senator, so you're welcome to use them, regardless of who represents
you.

And if you have friends who are represented by one of our House or Senate
targets above, please share our call and email pages with them and urge
them to contact those members. 

Together, we're going to save our elections from the SAVE Act. 

In solidarity,
