Indivisible Action: Vote NO on Voter Suppression
Republicans are once again pushing for a series of voter suppression bills–all variations of their infamous “SAVE Act” which would create unnecessary obstacles for millions of eligible Americans trying to register to vote.
This voter suppression legislation would require every voter to show proof of citizenship, like a passport or original birth certificate bearing their current legal name, when registering to vote in federal elections. That might sound simple, but the reality is that millions of eligible voters don’t have these documents readily available. Because these bills would require showing this proof in person, they would eliminate online and mail-in voter registration. These bills wouldn’t improve election security–would just make it significantly harder for everyday Americans to vote.

ICA Action: MI Monday and WI Wednesday Phone Banks
Join us as we call voters living in swing districts that are crucial for winning back power in the Midterms this November. We’ll be using an innovative approach developed by our friends at Swing Left called Ground Truth that focuses on having deep, meaningful conversations with voters. With Ground Truth we will:
Call all types of voters -- not just those we know will vote like us.
Have meaningful conversations that focus on listening to voters’ concerns.
Gather insights to share with campaigns, so they can be responsive to voters’ needs and smarter with their messaging, targeting, and outreach.
