Maybe Don't Take for Granted That You'll Be Able to Vote in the Midterms

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : If the SAVE Act passed, all of those could immediately become law as well.
57% : In the past, every time Congress has passed rules regarding elections, they've improved the voting process, expanded access to voting, but the SAVE Act, if passed, would be the first time in our nation's history that Congress passes a law suppressing votes, restricting access to voting.
52% : Can you just walk us through what the SAVE Act does and doesn't do? Wendy Weiser:
52% : There are efforts to put in place vote suppression measures in states across the country, including measures to require a birth certificate or passport to vote in state elections pending in almost half the states in the country right now.
51% : It's the latest step in the MAGA plan to overhaul U.S. elections, by which "overhaul" means "disenfranchise millions": The "Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act," or SAVE Act, will be put to a vote in the House on Thursday.
51% : On this week's Amicus podcast, Dahlia Lithwick talked with Wendy Weiser, vice president for democracy at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University Law School, about why the SAVE Act would be an unprecedented move by Congress, how free and fair elections are under increasing threat in the United States, and what concerned citizens can do about it.
51% : In addition to disenfranchising up to 21.3 million people, the SAVE Act would also completely upend voter registration.
50% : The other thing it's really important to notice about the SAVE Act and the executive order is that they put the lie to the idea that as long as we have voting in America, we have democracy.
47% : Make no mistake, the SAVE Act is not an election integrity bill.
