Most women vote Democratic. And most still change their name when they marry. And that’s where the GOP sees an Achilles’ heel.

Republicans don’t want women to vote. They now think they may have a strategy that could prevent them from doing so. House Speaker Mike Johnson and former President Donald Trump were pushing the [Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act], or SAVE Act, demanding it be part of must-pass legislation to fund the federal government for another year (the funding runs out at the end of this month, and then the shutdown begins).
It died in the House Wednesday night, but, like a bad penny, you can bet it’ll return.

I fixed a typo in the text.
You're viewing a single thread.
I can imagine a future comment in r/politics...
"Look, InevitableSwing - your negative comments aren't helping at all, okay? In 2021-22 the dems had unified control and they did in 2025-26 too. Yeah, we heard you. But they didn't 'do nothing' as you suggest. They did a highly impressive amount of work. Yes, they weren't able to pass federal election laws. They can't do everything. And now in 2029 we have President Barron because the conservative justices lowered the minimum age to be president. As for packing the court - that wasn't practicable. We have President Barron and we just have to deal with that."
"And stop saying 'Voting doesn't matter.' The GOP passed their SAVE Act. This is not a time to quit. Millions of woman can't vote in the 2030 midterms. We have to work around because it's the most important election of our lifetime..."
I can't reply because I was banned for the 27th time.
