Protect Voting Rights for Disabled Voters — Take Action Now
The U.S. Senate is debating the SAVE Act, a bill that would make it much harder for millions of people to vote — especially people with disabilities.

The SAVE Act would:

• Require in‑person registration and strict proof of citizenship — a barrier for disabled voters who can’t travel or access documents.
• Require specific photo IDs for voting in‑person and by mail — even though many disabled voters don’t have or can’t easily get those IDs.
• Force states to share sensitive voter information with DHS with no privacy protections.
• End nearly all voter registration drives, cutting off a vital access point for disabled and low‑income communities.

Our democracy works best when everyone can participate — including voters with disabilities.

There is still time to act. Contact your Senators and tell them to vote NO on the SAVE Act.

Voting is a basic right for U.S. citizens. Unfortunately, many voters with disabilities face barriers when trying to register and vote, such as:

- Polling places that are not fully accessible
- Lack of access to transportation
- Strict voter ID rule

People with disabilities have the right to vote and receive voter assistance.

But right now, Congress is considering several bills that would make it even harder for people to register and vote.

These decisions could affect millions of eligible voters. Congress should make sure voting laws protect access for people with disabilities, not limit them.
