The SAVE Act would end online and mail voter registration

According to the Center for American Progress, many Americans relied on online and mail voter registration to vote in elections. The SAVE Act would eliminate these options, making it harder for those who need or prefer it.

The SAVE Act would also eliminate driver’s licenses (including Real IDs), military IDs, and tribal IDs as proof of identification and citizenship status to vote. Instead, a state-issued Enhanced Driver’s License will be one of the requirements for Americans, as Republicans also want to use it for immigrants crossing the border in vehicles, per the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Campaign Legal Center.

In addition to married women, groups such as Black Americans, other people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those in rural areas could also face threats to their voting rights under the SAVE Act.
