MARRIED WOMEN IN PARTICULAR
The SAVE Act Would Disenfranchise Millions of Citizens
They are trying to end women’s suffrage!
This legislation would require all Americans to prove their citizenship status by presenting documentation—in person—when registering to vote or updating their voter registration information. Specifically, the legislation would require the vast majority of Americans to rely on a passport or birth certificate to prove their citizenship. Driver’s licenses—including REAL IDs—as well military or tribal IDs would not be sufficient forms of documentation to prove citizenship.
69 million women who have taken their spouse’s name do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name.
The legislation does not mention the potential option for these Americans to present change-of-name documentation or a marriage certificate in combination with a birth certificate to prove their citizenship.
This already passed the House and is with the Senate.
