The SAVE Act, recently passed by the U.S. House, mandates proof of citizenship when registering to vote, which could disproportionately affect transgender individuals, married women, and some men. It requires documents like a birth certificate or a passport, making registration more challenging, especially in rural areas. The bill's proponents argue it targets noncitizen voting and won't impact existing registered voters unless they alter their registration details. Democratic opposition highlights fears that such a bill could undermine online and automatic voter registration systems.
The SAVE Act is aimed at requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration, which might disenfranchise many, including transgender individuals, married women, and certain men.
Supporters of the SAVE Act argue that it won't impact existing voters, but any changes in address or name would necessitate a new proof of citizenship.
