| Lewis, We heard him loud and clear. President Trump wants to "take over the voting." And that's why the SAVE Act is back. House Republicans are trying every way they can to jam through this legislation through the Senate. The SAVE Act was concocted around right-wing lies about voter fraud — it would require all voters to prove they're citizens just to register to vote, while also eliminating voting by mail. Experts have issued grave warnings that millions of people would suddenly have to jump through major hoops just to avoid being disenfranchised. It's a long list of people affected, from those who've lost documents in floods or house fires to married women who've changed their last names (70% of them!). Just the idea that you have to show your papers to cast your ballot is deeply un-American and anti-democratic. But Republicans have decided that they can't win elections if they don't stop certain people from voting. That's why they're desperate to manipulate maps before the midterms. It's why they're threatening to deploy ICE and the military to polling locations. And it's why they're currently trying to ram through the SAVE Act. The good news is that our pro-democracy movement stopped them before, and we can stop them again. The next few days are critical — can you rush in a donation to support our efforts across the country to stop Trump and his allies from stripping democracy to its studs? The will of the people will win out. We will make sure of it. Thank you, The NDRC
