3 BALLOT QUESTIONS ON WI CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS

Amendment 1
Worship During Emergencies 

Amendment 2
Governor's Partial Veto
Amendment 3
Government "Preferential Treatment"




CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS CHANGE THE RULES. 
Be an Informed Voter. Know the Consequences. 

1) Once approved, constitutional amendments can shape government policy for decades.
2) Constitutional amendments bypass the governor's veto power, changing the rules without the usual checks and balances. 
3) Constitutional amendments can only be changed with approval from two consecutive sessions of the legislature followed by voters' approval. 


TAKE ACTION...
The Senate will be back on Capitol Hill next week. When they return, the Senate will only have a couple of weeks to vote on the SAVE America Act before they leave for October recess, and the League expects them to try.

We need to remind our Senators that we oppose the SAVE America Act.

NO TO SAVE AMERICA ACT

Please CALL your member of the Senate
to register your objections to this attempt at voter 
suppression. 












The SAVE Act is much more than a voter ID bill!

Here’s what you need to know about the SAVE America Act:

1) Citizenship is already a requirement to vote, and instances of noncitizen voting are rare.

2 ) Many eligible citizens don’t have access to documentary proof of citizenship.

3) There are better ways to verify citizenship that put the responsibility on government, not voters.

4) The SAVE America Act could have unintended consequences for election officials and election administration.

5) The SAVE America Act’s photo ID requirements are more restrictive than any state law currently in place.

6) The SAVE America Act needs more time and resources to be implemented well.
