SAVE Our Republic: Why the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act Is Absolutely Necessary

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : With a new Congress in session, there is now a new opportunity to push the SAVE Act across the finish line.
60% : It gets worse when you consider that cities like NYC and San Francisco have already legalized non-citizen voting in local elections -- meaning that the voter rolls in New York and California (and more states who do the same) are guaranteed to have non-citizens present.
58% : We have published state level model policy closing loopholes, op-eds highlighting the injustices of non-citizen voting and how it disenfranchises those who worked so hard to attain citizenship, policy products delving deeper into the data on this issue, and more.
57% : Five House Democrats joined Republicans to pass the SAVE Act in the last Congress, recognizing the common-sense appeal of protecting our democracy.
56% : We have also seen states actively promote non-citizen voting on a local level and fail to require proof of citizenship when registering people to vote.
54% : Yet Senate Democrats blocked it, bowing to pressure from progressives who somehow think it's acceptable to let foreign nationals have just as much as an equal say as American citizens in our democracy.
49% : And while critics of the "SAVE Act also argue that non-citizen voting is rare, rarity isn't the point -- integrity is.
48% : The evidence of non-citizen voting isn't just theoretical -- it's happening in our communities.
40% : Anything less undermines the very concept of citizenship and hands foreign nationals a very real say in our future.
37% : By requiring proof of citizenship -- such as a passport, birth certificate, or military ID -- the SAVE Act closes the loophole that allows non-citizens to register and vote.
36% : By implementing a simple common-sense policy, the SAVE Act addresses another issue: American confidence in elections.
