This mandates government registration to access an essential right of a citizen in a democracy. Ask for the same thing for gun ownership though and the right would lose their minds.
It's a disgusting attempt to disenfranchise millions of women and anyone else who changes their name, or doesn't have time/money for the hassle, but it's also only one prong of the attack. The name match requirement would be at the time of voter registration, so wouldn't affect current voters unless..... Massive swaths were purged from the voter rolls - this is a reason why the feds keep suing for voter roll information from states, and why red states have complied
Last election several individuals committed voter AND election fraud. They were all Republicans.
Let’s see ‘em in the comments if you’re inclined to display them.
provide photo ID when they cast ballots.
Does this mean mail in voting is dead?
Also, the party of state's rights everyone.
The GOP voted to take away the rights from almost every married woman in the country, think about that for a second and you'll understand why they even made the SAVE act.
They claim it's about immigrants, but it's truly about taking away the right to vote from people the GOP doesn't like. So if you aren't a rich, white, male, you cannot vote under GOP rule.
Time for women everywhere to refuse to take their husband's surname when they get married.
Here we go. This is how they're going to further oppress the opposition and keep the regime in power. Anything to keep Trump from paying for his crimes.
Married women can't vote because the names don't match.
This will skate through the Senate. Elections in the USA won't mean shit after this.
And wtf can be used as "proof of citizenship"
GOP is scared. They know, short of gestapo-like tactics this November, their days are numbered.
To everyone saying people needed to wait until the mid-terms to take action: Fuck You.
