People would have to prove U.S. citizenship before registering or voting in federal elections. States would have to check voter rolls for noncitizens, and election officials could face lawsuits or criminal penalties for breaking the new rules.

SAVE America Act is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
Latest action on H.R. 7296: Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people who register or vote in federal elections, especially anyone who does not already have easy access to approved citizenship papers or photo ID. It also affects state and local election offices, which would have to verify documents, store more records, check databases, and remove noncitizens from voter rolls. Federal agencies would have to answer state requests for citizenship information quickly and without charging fees.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it would change the basic steps for registering and voting in federal elections across the country. It would add one national citizenship-check system, but it could also add new paperwork for eligible voters. The effect would likely depend on how easily people can get the required documents and how well states handle database checks, errors, and backup proof requests.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
