The SAVE Act would make voting incredibly difficult for Americans—especially for rural voters, tribal citizens, people of color, disabled people, unhoused people, people living below the poverty line, and transgender people, writes @queenmab.bsky.social rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/04/01/o... - ThreadSky

Dems need to prepare since they refuse to prevent it. Maybe fundraise to pay the fees for passports in blue areas? Send money orders made out to the U.S. Department of State directly to constituents. Start door knocking.

Idk what’s possible because I’m not an elected official & this isn’t my job.

Unfortunately that’s the whole reason.

Fairly large group there. From what I understand, you can add women in general to that list. I wonder what all those people have in common. Hmmm.

#NoSAVEAct
It is extreme voter suppression.

I have a question — is this only required when you register to vote? Or when you go to the polls to cast your vote?

nerdyroar.bsky.social•17 minutes ago

When you physically go to the polls

And married women who took their husband’s name.

It’s CRITICAL to the MAGA Party ever again winning a Presidential Election.
They’re screwed without the “Save” Act.

WOMEN - NEVER change your name when you marry.

Omg, and you know those pu**y republican sycophants are going to kiss his butt.

Married woman. Because their name on their birth certificate doesn't match their name on their driver's licence

Not to mention women. Who seem to rank below all of those other groups.

Shutting down and reducing staff at Government Offices making documents more difficult to obtain 🤔😡

For those pointing out the lack of mention of women-- most of the posts have been exactly about that. This article is about those that largely get ignored when discussing the Act. When was the article posted that you read that headlined 1st Nations people? The homeless?

nerdyroar.bsky.social•18 minutes ago

😅 The actual article also talks about how this will effect women right at the start. Identity politics will kill us all people. Focus on the real problems(the SAVE acts existence) not bluesky character limits.

firstconsul.bsky.social•1 hour ago

Which, of course, is the whole point.
