The House voted to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act by a margin of 220-208. This bill would create an unnecessary barrier to voting by requiring eligible Americans to provide documentary proof of citizenship in person to register to vote.

Write to your House member about their vote on the bill.

H.B. 7212, an Act Concerning the Trust Act, represents an important step in protecting Connecticut’s immigrant communities, but it does not fully address the breadth of challenges our immigrant community members are facing. Submit testimony ahead of the March 19 Public Hearing in support of strengthening the Trust Act.

Voters deserve clear information when asked to vote on major changes in their town or city government. Please join us in submitting written testimony before March 7 in favor of Raised House Bill 7125. And if you ever voted on a ballot question about changing your town or city charter that used vague or confusing language, please mention it in your testimony.

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.
