| 3343224 | d301af3e-5631-43a6-a0d8-67b028e06d29 | Q1 | NATIONAL ADVOCACY CENTER OF THE SISTERS OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD | 77993 | CONFERENCE OF PROVINCIALS OF NORTH AMERICA | 2025 | first_quarter | CIV | OPPOSE THE SAVE ACT, H.R. 2: Sent letter to the House urging Representatives to oppose the SAVE Act. The SAVE Act represents a shameful, divisive attempt to prevent millions of eligible U.S. citizens - disproportionately Latinos and other voters of color - from registering to vote. It amends the National Voter Registration Act to require onerous documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections and contains numerous other harmful provisions designed to restrict participation by lawfully registered voters. VOTE NO ON THE SAFEGUARD AMERICAN VOTER ELIGIBILITY (SAVE) ACT: Sent letter urging Members of the House to VOTE NO on the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. This legislation, which unjustly imposes documentary proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration, is a clear attempt at voter suppression that undermines the integrity of our electoral process and violates our shared religious values. The SAVE Act perpetuates the false narrative of widespread noncitizen voting and voter fraud, claims that have been thoroughly debunked. By furthering these harmful falsehoods, the bill demonizes immigrants and communities of color while creating unnecessary barriers to the ballot box for eligible voters-especially those from marginalized communities, including communities of faith. The SAVE Act will disenfranchise millions of citizens, eligible voters, nationwide. For example, 69 million women across the country would not be able to register to vote with their birth certificate, because their married name doesn't match their name on their birth certificate. And countless citizens may not have or may not be able to access a passport: As of 2023, less than half of Americans possessed a passport. In short, this bill will make it impossible for scores of eligible citizens to vote. SAVE ACT ADVOCACY: NAC sent message to House offices, urging members to vote NO on the SAVE Act (H.R. 22), an anti-voter law due to be voted on soon. The SAVE Act promotes a false narrative of widespread noncitizen voting and voter fraud, a claim that has been thoroughly debunked. By perpetuating these falsehoods, the bill demonizes immigrants and communities of color while creating unnecessary barriers to the ballot box for eligible voters. JOHN R. LEWIS VOTING RIGHTS AND ADVANCEMENT ACT: Quote for Press Release issued around the reintroduction of John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (NAC was an endorsing organization): The right to vote was restricted to a small group when our republic was founded. Over the course of the last 100 years, all of Americas citizens of age won the right to vote. Regrettably, in practice, many of them have continued to see unconstitutional restrictions put in their path especially in the last number of years as the Voting Rights Act of 1965 has been picked apart. In this 60th anniversary year, the National Advocacy Center of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd is here to stand strong and declare our support for the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. We call on Congress to act quickly to pass this foundational bill restoring voting rights as we near Americas 250th birthday, said Fran Eskin-Royer, Executive Director of the National Advocacy Center of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd. | HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE | 20000 | 0 | 0 | 2025-04-17T18:38:52-04:00 |
