Join ACA's Campaign to Let Your Representatives in Congress Know How Overseas Voting Will Be Affected By The SAVE Act H.R.22
Posted by Aca Admin on March 18, 2025
The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) of 1986 allows U.S. citizens living to register and vote from abroad. U.S. citizens who want to register to vote from overseas can fill out a ballot using the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA), which they submit it by mail or, in some states, by fax or email, to their local election offices. In some states, Americans who live overseas can also register to vote by using their state’s mail registration form or online registration portal.
The SAVE Act (H.R. 22) Safeguard American Voting Act, will require in-person proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in U.S. elections. The SAVE Act risks disenfranchising U.S. citizen voters overseas who register to vote online and vote via absentee ballot. ACA, along with other organizations, has signed a letter to Congress letting them know about our concerns for overseas voters.
Click here to contact your Representatives in Congress and let them know them know that H.R. 22 will disenfranchise U.S. citizen voters overseas.
