Statement of International Chair Martha McDevitt-Pugh on the House Passage of the SAVE Act:
The so-called „SAVE“ Act just passed in the House by the MAGA-led GOP is a deeply troubling and harmful bill which will disenfranchise millions of legal, eligible American voters and criminalize volunteer election workers for simply helping administer our elections. It will effectively end voting from abroad for military and civilian voters due to the costly, new in-person voter registration requirements it will impose. Voting is a key way that Americans abroad stay engaged with our home country, and so we call upon all Americans and especially Americans living abroad, regardless of their political party, to fight this massive disenfranchisement effort as the bill now goes to the Senate. Stop the SAVE act."
