What is the SAVE Act? How this new bill could make it harder for you to vote

A new draft law presented in Congress, last month, for millions of Americans, it is aimed at requiring citizenship that can further complicate a complex registration process.

On January 3, the Republican Representative Chip Roy, “In this country,” Legal Safeguard “to Congress to Congress to ensure that our elections and their sovereignty cannot be kidnapped in this country and cannot be affected.

Save law requires voters to submit a citizenship documentary to register voting or flight. This means the “advanced driver’s license” or “advanced driver’s license”, which unites an American flag to show proof of passports, birth certificates or citizenship, or the owner’s citizenship.

However, by presenting additional obstacles to vote, this legislation can accidentally cancel the voters of millions of young voters, colors and married women’s voters analysis published by Non-profit Brennan Justice Center.

Why do people oppose the rescue action?

After the 2016 election, President Trump, claiming that the election did not reach 1,5 million and 5 million to 5 million 5 million, this is afraid that the results of the “disappearing” claims. Insufficient voting is already illegal in 50 states.

Although the new requirements can eventually result in Noncitizen registration, experts occur only with the “infinite” rate – they were not registered for millions of Americans who can not have the required documents.

Last year, Brennan Central 21 million Americans were found to be citizenship. Enhanced driver’s licenses – those who have citizenship on the card are available only in five states. There are almost half of Americans to have a passport.

According to the analysis of the center of Brennan, young voters and color voters are less likely to be less likely than those required. The non-profit non-profit, the Save act “Personally” wrote “Personally” to “eliminate” the “documentation document” of voters “” to functionally “.

This bill may also be disproportionately disproportionately without voting: 69 million married women, according to the American Progress Center, there is no birth certificate in accordance with its legal names.

The legislation once passed the house once in July and reconstructed, will probably see the ground again soon. However, the law will pass the bill, the potential Senate Philibuster, which requires transparent support from seven Democrats.
