Tell Your Senators to Oppose the SAVE Act

The House is back in session after August recess, and the Senate will be back on Capitol Hill next week. When they return, the Senate will only have a couple of weeks to vote on the SAVE Act before they leave for October recess, and we expect them to try.

We need to remind our Senators that we oppose the SAVE Act.

This bill would require citizenship documentation to register to vote, even though voters in every state are already required to affirm or verify their citizenship status when registering. Additionally, the bill would make voting more difficult by mandating that voters prove their identity using a photo ID from a strict list when casting a ballot.

The 2026 midterm election is just around the corner, and if passed and signed by the President, the SAVE Act could create major hurdles to registering and accessing the ballot. Election officials all across the country are working diligently to prepare for the midterm election, and the last thing they need is a major change to voting rules with less than 60 days until Election Day.

This renewed attempt to pass the SAVE Act is part of a long list of tactics that seek to make it more difficult for voters of color and naturalized citizens to vote. Americans do not need MORE obstacles to vote. The League will not stand idly by, and we need your help to stop these unnecessary requirements.
