Sign the petition: Block Trump's attempt to steal the 2026 midterms — oppose the SAVE Act! 14AUG25


 THE fascist heritage foundation project 2025 directed drumpf / trump-vance administration's assaults on our democratic Republic are relentless. They expect the American people to tire of the constant battles to prevent our nation from becoming an authoritarian theocratic oligarchy. We can not give up or give in, the consequences will be devastating not only for us but for generations to come. WE, THE PEOPLE, need to remind ourselves and each other every day DEMOCRACY IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT. Please sign this petition from Demand Progress telling the U.S. Senate to defeat the SAVE Act and so stop the government from conducting an illegal mid-decade census and gerrymandered redistricting as well as suppressing the ability to vote for approximately 21 million Americans. Share this with family, friends and coworkers. If possible e mail your senators  telling them to stop the SAVE Act. 

TELL THE U.S. SENATE: Trump is trying to rig the 2026 midterm elections with extreme gerrymandering, an unprecedented census, and dangerous voter suppression bills. Our free and fair elections are on the line. Sign the petition: Block Trump's attempt to steal the 2026 midterms — oppose the SAVE Act!

Trump is trying to steal the 2026 midterm elections. Here’s how: The White House is trying to order a new census that the ACLU says would “defy the Constitution.”1 Trump says he wants to make the unprecedented move to exclude non-citizens from the count, which he claims will be “highly accurate.”2,3

Trump is pressuring states to gerrymander away Democratic-leaning U.S. House seats. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has threatened protesting state Democratic lawmakers with arrest, says he won’t stop until the GOP’s unconstitutional gerrymandering plan becomes law.4

The GOP’s SAVE Act is also pending a vote in the Senate. It would be one of the most dangerous federal voter suppression laws in modern times, potentially disenfranchising millions of people. Our elected leaders in Congress need to do everything they can to oppose Trump’s attacks on our democratic elections.

Sign the petition: Block Trump's attempt to steal the 2026 elections. Oppose the SAVE Act!

Trump’s brazen attempt to rig the midterm elections comes after years of baseless claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Republican disinformation campaigns pushing baseless lies about supposed non-citizen voting have laid the groundwork for Trump’s efforts to steal the 2026 elections.

In addition to extreme GOP gerrymandering and a new census, the SAVE Act could disenfranchise millions of voters. The bill would require people to prove that they’re citizens in order to vote by providing a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers. 21 million eligible voters don’t have these documents readily available.5

The stakes are clear: Trump and his allies want to lock themselves into power by rigging the system, suppressing votes, and silencing millions of Americans. Congress must stop Republicans from stealing the midterms.

Sign the petition: Don't let Trump and the GOP rig the midterm elections!

Thanks for taking action,

Joey and the Demand Progress team
