The SAVE Act will require voters to provide unnecessary documentation to vote.
This bill would make voting harder for people of color, women, and low-income people — groups of people who already face more difficulties at the polls.

If election registration volunteers register you w/o proper documentation, they can be sued/criminally prosecuted (up to 5 yrs jail)
Driver’s license/REAL ID won’t work bc it does not state citizenship/place of birth. So unless you live in one of 5 states that have “enhanced REAL IDs” -not an option.
means you must wait for your state to adopt procedures to help folks w/ paperwork discrepancies.
Delay=vote not counted
Using legal voting, Id, a person decides to use postal vote, this deactivates the voting id, all new voters in an election year only votes in person
“Drinking water is important, that’s why we require five forms of ID before you do it.”
It’s a deliberate move to make voting harder for those who don’t fit their agenda while pretending it’s about “integrity.”
Let’s be clear: this is an attack on voting rights, plain and simple.
Why do all you white fuckers think we can't function as contributing members of America? We are adults and don't need you babysitting us.
Assholes!!
IDs are easily obtained.
We should also be investing in local organizations that help people get an ID at no cost. Including helping them gather any necessary documentation need to obtain those IDs
If there is a time to set whole fucking Washington on fire it's fucking now If this isn't declined and dismissed within the next few weeks
For many, "harder" equates to nearly impossible and much less likely to vote. Which is what MAGA wants. That's the only way they can keep winning

Additionally, if passports are required, since you must pay for one, you can argue that would be a poll tax which is also illegal.
Everybody knows only revolution and direct action get the goods, and that voting is a waste of time and an insult to our intelligence.
Enough "democracy", enough "elections".
Time for revolution.
Seems important to flag that it will also make voting-- & re-registering after moving -- especially hard for people with disabilities & for seniors.
Not a dare!

State judges, federal judges, judges on US Supreme Court of Corruption take oath of office to Constitution - Article 6 and yet many are enemies of Constitution.
Article 4, Section 4
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government
State judges, federal judges, judges on US Supreme Court of Corruption have a constitutional obligation to end gerrymandering and poll taxes because they harm the ability to have Republican Form of Government.
They have a responsibility to make sure it is easy for people to vote.
The racists, fascists, and sexists on US Supreme Court of Corruption have gone out of their way to make it hard for people to vote.

Apparently I would appear to be a noncitizen who can’t vote or get a passport. I could be deported if I make our country’s leaders angry—assuming this passes.
Beware of "Papers, please."
To keep us POC “in our place”.
Eff the GOP!
