The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (also called the SAVE Act or SAVE America Act) is a federal bill that would fundamentally change how Americans register to vote.
Today, Vote.org can help you register to vote in minutes, online, from anywhere.
Under the SAVE Act, that process would change significantly. Voters would generally need to present documentary proof of citizenship in person before completing registration, effectively eliminating most current online and mail registration methods. For most people, that means a passport or certified birth certificate.
House Passage: The bill, which aims to require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, passed passed the House of Representatives multiple times since 2024, House on a party-line vote.
Senate Stalls: The legislation subsequently failed in the Senate. It lacked the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster and has struggled to secure bipartisan support.
Current Status: The bill remains a central political issue, with renewed pushes for its passage in the wake of recent Supreme Court rulings regarding election administration. [1, 2]
