We oppose the SAVE Act. This legislation only serves to discourage participation in the democratic process and disenfranchises voters in multi-marginalized communities, including the disability community www.ndrn.org/resource/nca...
The National Coalition on Accessible Voting (NCAV) Strongly Opposes the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act and its intent to Suppress the Vote of Marginalized Communities - NDRN
NCAV calls for Congress to pass legislation that would advance, expand, and protect the rights of all voters.

All we want is for people with disabilities to have an equal opportunity to vote in every election. Because every election is important.

It's not complicated.

More stuff on our campaigns and on local elections (maybe near you!) is coming in the next few days! Follow us to learn more.

Here are a few things the NCAV has done:

(1). Publish big, long guides to voting accessibility: accessiblevoting.net/voter-access...

(2) Advocate for the #RightToHelp when you vote, or the "right to voter assistance": www.ndrn.org/resource/rig...

(3) Share resources on upcoming elections!
