Urge the EAC to Reject Documentary Proof of Citizenship Requirements

Act by Midnight Oct. 20
 
The federal Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is considering a petition requesting that it add documentary proof of citizenship to the federal voter registration form. 
 
Much like the SAVE Act, this proposal would force Americans to show specific, costly, hard-to-access documents like passports before registering to vote.
 
An estimated 21 million Americans could be shut out from the ballot box, particularly rural voters, students, women, communities of color, and members of the military. 
 
The EAC is taking public comments to gather input on whether they should adopt this anti-voter initiative. They need to hear from you about how damaging this policy would be before they make their decision.
