Call to Action:

Oppose the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. LWVUS, LWVPA, and LWVPGH ask all League members and the public to contact their US Senators and ask them to vote “NO” on the SAVE Act. The US House of Representatives passed this bill on April 10, 2025. Now it is in the Senate for consideration.

The SAVE Act

would require in-person citizenship documentation to register to vote, putting an unfunded burden on all county elections offices
would exclude millions of eligible citizens from registering to vote if they don't have passports, access to their birth certificates, or if those documents do not reflect their name following a name change if their married name does not match their birth certificate name.
would effectively end online voter registration and mail-in voting
would limit voter registration efforts by nonprofits like the LWV
would require military voters, and any other voter who moves, to present documentation every time they re-register to vote due to a move
