Action Alerts

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.

More than 100 years after some women gained the right to vote, the federal government has still not consistently recognized the constitutional right to sex and gender equality. The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) constitutionally protects the equality of rights under the law regardless of sex.

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

Submitted by the US (LWVUS) in December 2024.

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!
