Seems like Republicans only have respect to states' rights over election administration when it comes to North Dakota

Federal election bill not expected to affect North Dakota ‱ North Dakota Monitor A federal election security bill gaining traction in Congress wouldn’t affect North Dakota if it passes, according to the North Dakota Secretary of State’s Office.

One more thing about the SAVE Act that's laughable, North Dakota, which doesn't do voter registration would be COMPLETELY EXEMPT. So while Americans in all other 49 states would need to show a passport or birth certificate in person to register to vote, North Dakotans can just walz to the polls.

The SAVE Act Would Disenfranchise Millions of Citizens The SAVE Act would require all Americans to prove their citizenship with documentation unavailable to millions and upend the way every American citizen registers to vote.

There are ALREADY documentation requirements to be able to register to vote. ‌

The SAVE Act would upend this process and make every American citizen put in the work, time, and resources to exercise their constitutional right to vote. https://ampr.gs/40PaPJz

Jesus Christ, Polis, have a little respect for your office and your state.

Peters betrayed her public office in a way that struck at the very basis of our democracy. Also note that she was convicted on *multiple other* counts -- including conspiracy to commit impersonation and official misconduct.

‘Have you no decency?’ Read the scathing letter a Minnesota US Senate staffer sent to Mike Lee After Utah Sen. Mike Lee promoted right-wing conspiracy theories about the man who killed Melissa Hortman and her husband, a senior staffer for Sen. Tina Smith wrote a blistering email to Lee’s staff.

As a Minnesotan, I remember that very well. Senator Tina Smith’s staff sent his office a heartbreaking and powerful letter/email after his despicable comments. I think about it all the time: www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

Trump just described voting as "the greatest privilege of them all."

We don't call it a privilege here. It's a right.

Trump reinforced his support of the SAVE America Act during SOTU. One part he conveniently forgets? It requires states to hand over voter rolls to DHS & creates a federalized surveillance system of voters under Kristi Noem. The last thing Americans want is her in charge of their voter reg status.

Trump also said that is the SAVE Act passes, Republicans won’t lose an election for 50 years. He’s afraid Americans will hold his administration and his allies accountable at the ballot box so he wants to keep citizens from voting.

Trump called for passage of the SAVE Act again during SOTU. Calling SAVE “voter ID” is MAGA sugarcoating MAGA to try to make Americans swallow this toxic bill. SAVE requires Americans to show a passport or birth certificate. REAL IDs don’t count. This isn’t election integrity, it’s election rigging.

Opinion: I support voter ID but oppose the SAVE America Act Protecting election integrity should not come at the cost of access, especially in rural and tribal communities.

Must read from AK Sen. Lisa Murkowski on why she’s opposing the SAVE Act. One chief reason being how terrible the bill would be for rural communities and that fact that some Alaskans would have to fly to show their passport or birth certificate to an election official 👇 www.adn.com/opinions/202...

She’s not wrong! The SAVE Act is so badly written, it mandates state officials make printers and scanners available to the public for scanning documents. They provide no $ for implantation to overhaul voting nationwide but do this. “hard to cheat, EASY to vote” right?

The GOP’s “show us your papers” bill Is the latest effort to help Trump take over elections “If the SAVE Act were to pass, it would be the worst voter suppression law that Congress has ever enacted"

House set to pass new version of SAVE Act today, making terrible bill even worse. Could disenfranchise:

-21 million Americans without access to citizenship papers
-69 million married women who took partner’s name
-21 million without current drivers license

BREAKING: The SAVE Act is once again up for a vote tomorrow—it's not a voter ID bill, it's a show-your-papers mandate.

People are talking about it but it’s definitely not breaking through! Here’s a letter from many Secreaties of State who oversee DMVs/REAL ID saying they wouldn’t work and pleading for sponsors of this bill not to upend REAL ID www.sos.mn.gov/media/zzia53...

Many people think the SAVE Act wouldn’t apply to them because they have REAL ID. But that’s NOT true!! A REAL ID license is NOT proof of citizenship-it’s proof of legal presence. Permanent residents + visa holders can get REAL ID & in nearly all states they don’t look any different!

Th SAVE Act is up for another vote tomorrow! This is NOT a voter ID bill! It would force Americans to show a passport or birth certificate in person at their election office. This is a real drive someone would have to make to show their docs to an election official! 8 hours! And they’re not alone.

Gun Owners of America is lobbying Congress to pass the SAVE Act, which would require a majority of Americans to show a passport to register to vote.

But GOA opposes any law that requires showing a drivers license to buy a gun.

These are not serious people.

Honestly this could not be funnier if you tried. Sen Cramer ND supports the SAVE Act which would require doc proof of citizenship for voter reg
Meanwhile ND is the ONLY state that doesn’t do voter registration! ND would likely be exempt, but he supports making voting harder for millions of Americans

Feels like a crime to return to this BS after MLK Day
There is no version of the SAVE Act that is feasible that would not disenfranchise millions of American citizens —140M+ don’t have a passport, 70M women don’t have matching documents, & in person means making rural folks drive hours to show docs

The Trump Administration Plans to Retaliate for a Government Shutdown by Firing Federal Employees—But Can It? A government shutdown would limit, not expand, the authorities the administration has—including its ability to fire federal employees—which is why it must move forward with firing plans now.

The Trump administration's threat to fire employees is not about so-called government efficiency—it's clear political retaliation at the expense of people’s livelihoods, careers, and the vital services they provide to the American people. More from Greta Bedekovics: https://ow.ly/jBHZ50X4kNk

Make no mistake, the SAVE Act is not about preventing noncitizen voting, its a bill to deny citizens the right to vote. Look what's happening in TX with blatant attempts to silence citizens to grab more congressional seats. So yea, its not about election integrity

On the 60th anniversary of the VRA, conservatives thought it was a good idea to launch a bus tour to support the SAVE Act-legislation that would restrict citizens' right to vote.... Bus tours were instrumental in the fight for voting rights during the civil rights movement. They know no shame
