The House and Senate introduced the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which 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.

The SAVE Act would create one more barrier to the voting process, as many eligible voters do not have easy access to the necessary documents.

Tell your members of Congress to oppose the SAVE Act

Action Alert - League of Women Voters (Vote for Your Rights)

Action Alerts

More than 50 years after the Voting Rights Act was passed, full protections for voting rights are not guaranteed for all voters. While we have made progress in expanding voter access, many people still face challenges to participating in elections due to factors including income, health, age, race, disability, and gender. Voting is a fundamental right, and all Americans deserve an equal opportunity to make their voices heard in our democracy.

Urge Congress to protect the right to vote!

Contact your state senator and representative and urge them to support HB 5448 to protect elections workers! It has become apparent over the past few years that election workers need protection. This bill would take measures to prevent and penalize harassment, threats of violence, and/or doxxing of election workers, and prohibits guns from polling locations and elections related locations.

Local news outlets spark civic engagement and voter turnout, and their collapse poses a threat to our cities and towns due to increasing polarization and misinformation. We can reverse this trend through reallocation of funding.
