The proposed SAVE America Act could make it harder for millions of married and divorced women to vote by requiring proof of citizenship. The legislation would disproportionately affect women who have changed their names, with as many as 69 million American women potentially facing new challenges to voting.
A new federal legislation, the SAVE America Act, would require voters to prove their citizenship before casting a ballot. This could affect millions of married and divorced women who have changed their names. The law would mandate that most Americans show a birth certificate or passport to register to vote. People with names that don’t match their birth certificate may need to produce additional documents. This could disproportionately affect women, with 85% of American women changing their name when they get married. The legislation is currently being debated in the US Senate.
