Page 15 of the GOP’s Save America Act wld force all 50 states to submit their voter rolls to the DHS’s centralized voter purge program (called “SAVE”), which they know has had error rates as high as 14% & links to an SSA database that they know was compromised by DOGE. #NoOnSave 1/

2/ Link to the latest version of the Save America Act.

3/ The SAVE system had at least a 14% error rate in one Texas county, as reported here. texastribune.org/2026/02/13/sav…

4/

5/ The “SAVE” system at the heart of the GOP’s Save America Act was “expanded” by DOGE & the DHS to “check the citizenship status of all U.S. citizens w/o providing info on how this was accomplished or the accuracy of the resulting tools. Early reports suggest an error rate as high as 17%” 8/2025 protectdemocracy.org/wp-content/upl…

6/ DHS & DOGE recently announced a dramatic overhaul of the SAVE program. “Sweeping changes…allow user agencies to search SAVE using just social security #s, names, and [DOB]…DHS & the [SSA] have given the SAVE program access to info…in the administration’s central social security number database.” brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

7/ Whistleblower alleges that an SSA “database called the Numident, which is the master database of ur personal info, was uploaded to an AWS cloud environment.” [Numident’s data is now allegedly linked to the Save System to facilitate voter purges. This is a centerpiece of the Save America Act] pbs.org/newshour/show/…

8/ DHS & SSA have allegedly “‘reengineered’ SAVE into an instrument for mass voter‑eligibility checks. Their complaint alleges that…data from multiple federal databases—including SSA’s vast NUMIDENT file—has been repurposed to enable states to upload entire voter‑registration lists for…screening.” litigationconferences.com/organizations-…

10/

11/ A more direct link for the bill language in post 1. Page 15, Section 4(B) is new. congress.gov/119/bills/s138…

12/ “DOGE Put Critical Social Security Data at Risk, Whistle-Blower [Charles Borges] Says *** DOGE team members uploaded a database with the personal information of hundreds of millions of Americans to a vulnerable cloud server, according to the agency’s chief data officer.”
8/26/25 nytimes.com/2025/08/26/us/…

13/ You can read Charles’ Borges’s full SSA whistleblower disclosure here. whistleblower.org/wp-content/upl…

14/ Note the reference to “write access” (ie, editing access) to certain SSA databases in the Borges disclosure. I don’t know if these specific databases link to SAVE or not. whistleblower.org/wp-content/upl…

15/ The agency denied some or all of Borges’s claim and he was forced to “involuntarily resign”. But… cnn.com/2026/01/20/pol…

16/ But the DOJ recently admitted in a court filing that “a Department of Government Efficiency employee shared Social Security data without agency officials’ knowledge and in violation of security protocols..” Oops. 🥵 larson.house.gov/media-center/i…
