Issues & Legislation We are Following

  1. The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act imposes new restrictions on voter eligibility and registration in an effort to address alleged voter fraud in American elections. However, these provisions create significant barriers for many eligible voters, making it harder for them to participate in the electoral process. While the Act’s goal is to ensure voter eligibility, its provisions introduce severe barriers that will disproportionately affect women, marginalized groups, and under-resourced communities. The SAVE Act creates obstacles that could disenfranchise a wide range of voters by making voter registration more complex, requiring stricter identification, and limiting voter registration efforts by nonprofits. This legislation is not only harmful but risks undermining the very foundation of a participatory democracy.

  2. Response to Executive Order  “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections”

    On March 25th, President Trump issued a new Executive Order, targeting the heart of American elections and claiming a power the federal government does not have, according to constitutional law scholars. The provisions of this Executive Order seek to radically change the way elections are conducted in the United States, including the way we register to vote and the way our votes are cast and counted. It is a direct attack on our freedom to vote — attempting to strip that fundamental right from anyone who can’t produce documents that millions of Americans don’t have, can’t afford, or struggle to access. 

    This Executive Order seeks to gut registration methods that have long made voting safer, more accessible, and more equitable. It also attempts to open the door for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has no congressional or constitutional authority, to go through voter files for personal information and give the federal government new tools to purge eligible voters from the rolls.

    This is not about any real election mismanagement, deficiencies, or fraud – there is no evidence supporting any of these claims and our elections workers and elections administrators are hard working and ethical. This is about advancing a narrative meant to block people from having a say in the decisions that shape our lives. It’s also a deliberate effort to divide us — to pit Americans against each other along racial and economic lines while targeting working people, young voters, new Americans, married women who’ve changed their names, and marginalized communities. This new order could cause more than 21 million eligible Americans to lose their voice in our democracy.
