LWVUS: “The House passage of the SAVE America Act is a direct attack on the freedom to vote.”

The League of Women Voters issued a press release in response to the passage of the SAVE America Act by the House on February 11, 2026:

“Under the false banner of ‘election integrity,’ lawmakers are advancing policies designed to block lawful voters from participating in our elections — particularly rural voters, voters of color, and nearly 70 million married women who have changed their last names, along with other voters who have been historically marginalized and already face barriers to casting a ballot. This is modern-day voter suppression, plain and simple. 

“If enacted, the impact of these anti-voter bills would be massive. Millions of eligible voters could be blocked from casting a ballot under the SAVE America Act’s restrictive documentary proof of citizenship requirements.”
