Dear Senator -

There is no widespread voter fraud that would necessitate either a federal emergency or the SAVE Act.

This Republican Administration is acting like voting is a privilege, but it is a foundational right specified in the Constitution.

I want to see you flood the media with appearances explaining exactly why this Republican Administration is wrong about the risk to the security and integrity of voting in this county.

The SAVE Act supported by this Republican Administration would disproportionately harm:

-Women who changed their names after marriage who would have to secure updated documentation to register to vote.

-Military families who would have to re-register every time they move sometimes very close to an election day.

-Disaster survivors who lost documents in disasters and face burdensome hurdles to replace them while rebuilding their lives.

-Communities of color: Black Americans are three times more likely than white citizens to lack easy access to birth certificates, passports, or naturalization papers.

Some Republicans have already admitted that they did not know all the details of this bill and how it would impact so many people. Corner your colleagues in Congress and make them look you in the eye when you ask them why they support a law that would disenfranchise millions.

Vote No on the SAVE Act.

Dear Sen / Rep

I oppose any suspension of the federal gas tax, including legislation such as the Gas Prices Relief Act, as a means of offsetting the economic burden of this Republican Administration's war in Iran. I likewise oppose lifting any sanctions on Russian oil.

If Congress believes (as I do) that this war imposes an excessive burden on Americans, Congress should end the war. Only Congress may declare war, and only Congress may fund it. Neither a formal declaration nor a proper authorization has occurred. Suspending the gasoline tax does not address that constitutional failure; it subsidizes indecision.

Focusing on gas prices minimizes the stakes. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz affects the entire global supply chain of critical materials including industrial sulfur as well as, copper, and cobalt, two materials essential to electric vehicle batteries and semiconductors. One-third of the world’s nitrogen fertilizer passes through the Strait.

Suspending the 18.4-cent-per-gallon federal gasoline tax is theater. It does not address the scale of disruption and papers over Congress’s responsibility to make a clear decision about the war itself.

Do not sign or vote for a suspension of the federal gasoline tax. Do not lift sanctions on Russia. Address the war directly. Your constituents are watching.
