Rs killed the #SAFEAct, which wld have required robust manual audits 4 all federal elections & banned paperless voting machines & internet connectivity. Yet Rs are the ones complaining about election security & Ds are playing defense?! @TheDemocrats must get back on OFFENSE! 1/ Image
Seriously. I will never understand why @theDemocrats haven’t reminded voters of Republicans obstruction re: election security every damn day. 2/ axios.com/gop-senator-el…
I will never understand why Democrats refused to use talking points to promote the #SAFEAct. I practically begged them to! 3/
Republicans know that moral outrage motivates their voters. So they fabricate grounds for moral outrage about election security & all sorts of issues all the time. Democrats have legitimate grounds for moral outraged over election security obstruction but are squandering it! 4/
This Morton Blackwell whose Leadership Institute has taught generations of Republicans the importance of moral outrage. Except theirs is manufactured. Again, we shld all be outraged re the GOP’s election security obstruction. USE IT! 5/
Seriously. How dare the GOP complain about election security after pulling this sh#t? Call them out on it!! 6/ axios.com/gop-senator-el…
Pls pls pls get ahead of 2022 by reintroducing a standalone election security bill. If Rs pass it, great! If they don’t, call their sorry asses out on it from now until eternity bc you didn’t do that last time and you should have. Use talking points this time too. TY:-) 7/ 👇

Post 8 is a re-do of post 5 bc post 5 had a typo and it’s an important point. 9/
It’s not too late to be the party of election security. Real election security, not the lies spewed by the GOP. And we really need improved security! This may be your last chance. If you trust the GOP not to cheat, then I have a bridge to sell you. Everything is on the line. 10/
Offense, not defense. Go get ‘em. Thanks for listening. 11/

I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/ Image
You can read the Trump-backed “Save America Act” for yourself here. This bill expands upon the original so-called “SAVE Act”. 2/ congress.gov/119/bills/hr72…
3/ Here’s a link to the Brennan Center’s July 2025 report warning about the problems with both the SAVE System and the Social Security Number database when used to purge voters from the voter rolls, as would occur under the “Save America Act”. Everyone should read it. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

The SAVE America Act’s list of approved citizenship documentation is at the top. Marriage certificates are *not* included, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those who buy expensive passports or have “Enhanced Drivers Licenses” that do match) 1/Image

The GOP’s “SAVE America Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which misleads bc most Real IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship & thus won’t suffice.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Rs are using public confusion over Real ID to advance their deceptive Save America Act. In reality, for most voters, a Real ID will *not* suffice to prove citizenship under the Act—even if they presented a birth certificate to get it. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE. 202-224-3121 1/ Image

The GOP’s “SAVE Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which is highly misleading bc most REAL IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship, per the DHS.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “ID issued consistent w/ the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen…” 1/ Image
