Fair Elections Center is a national, nonpartisan voting rights and election reform 501(c)(3) organization based in Washington, D.C.
What`s your motto for 2026? At Fair Elections Center, ours is, "The fight goes on." โ
โ
In the midst of what has been a challenging time for voting rights, Fair Elections Center, our partners, and ordinary citizens across the country continue to make their voices heard and stand up to anti-voter politicians in Washington. โ
โ
In late April, our efforts paid off. Thanks to loud, bipartisan opposition from voters everywhere, the disastrous SAVE Act failed to pass the Senate once again this year.โ
โ
This is a massive win for the freedom to voteโa victory we can and should celebrate. โ
โ
But we can`t let our guards down now, as threats against voting continue to mount. Along with the fallout from the Supreme Court`s decision in Callais last week, state legislatures across the country are still pushing documentary proof of citizenship requirements under the guise of election security and commonsense voter ID. โ
โ
The downfall of the federal SAVE Act makes clear the power of the American people when we rise up and say โenough.โ As bad actors keep trying to rewrite the rules and make it harder for Americans to vote, we`re asking you to join us in our fight to stop unlawful citizenship check bills once and for all. โ

In the week since the Louisiana v. Callais ruling, one thing has become painfully clear: the gerrymandering wars are far from over. In a new Stateline article, Fair Elections Center President and CEO Rebekah Caruthers says that the court`s decision reflects an ongoing determination to "gloss over Americaโs very sordid past."

Today the Supreme Court ruled in the highly anticipated case Callais V. Louisiana. The 6-3 decision effectively leaves Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act "all but a dead letter," Justice Elena Kagan said in her dissenting opinion. โ
