"The SAVE Act would impose so-called proof of citizenship, which is really just a fancy way of saying, 'we don’t want young people and married women who change their last names to be able to register to vote.'”

@wdlindsy democrats had nearly 35 years to expand and protect voting rights for minorities and young people. They could have made it a constitutional right. They did not. -

@Nimbius666 Wonderful that the Democrats remain the problem, isn't it, even when they have no governing power federally and we can all see — those of us with eyes and brains — in whose hands power lies and which party is gutting voting rights.

"Widespread Errors: An expanded federal tool for identifying noncitizens on voter rolls is making persistent mistakes, particularly in assessing citizenship for people born outside the U.S.
Banned From Voting: In Missouri, state officials told local clerks to temporarily ban flagged voters from casting ballots, even though hundreds turned out to be citizens."

@wdlindsy my point is I guess that calling the senators implies we are calling democrats? Republicans clearly aren't listening. If democrats have no power and haven't advanced voting rights in 30 years as a policy I don't see how calling on them now will help. -

@Nimbius666 Since Joyce Vance lives in the red state of Alabama, I am assuming — in fact, I know this from reading her over a long period of time — she's encouraging people in red states to call their Republican senators. Calling helps in that it creates a log of their constituents asking them to take policy stances, and they even if they pretend to ignore that log, there's a lot of evidence that political leaders pay attention to polls, especially GOP ones as Trump's popularity tanks.

/4"The liars know election fraud is rare. States and localities have multi-stage verification processes. They know that rarity is due to state laws holding criminals accountable. And liars know Americans prefer tradition. We prefer states and localities be in charge of elections.
What do the liars really want?
To stop the Democrats from winning."

"To do that, the president and his allies need to put in place a system with rules that suppress voters who favor Democrats. To do that, they need to take away voting authority from localities and states. That’s the point of the SAVE America Act. (It is also the point of a lawsuit against Connecticut and other blue states to force them to turn over voter rolls.)"

So, the Act and the flawed DHS software that tags so-called "non citizens" in voter's rolls share the same name
Is it really accidental?

@wdlindsy good thing states control how voting happens and not congress. Unconstitutional will not pass the senate. Im sure a judge will block this.
