希拉里·克林顿声称，共和党选民立法将使已婚女性投票更加困难——这一说法共和党议员和官员已表示他们已予以驳斥。
“你不必听特朗普昨晚漫无边际的演讲就知道，共和党人正试图让数百万美国人——尤其是已婚女性——更难投票，”克林顿周三在X平台（原推特）上发文称，“他们已经说得很清楚了。是时候反击了。”
克林顿所指的是总统唐纳德·特朗普周二晚上的国情咨文演讲。
总统呼吁国会通过《保障美国选民资格法案》（Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, SAVE America Act），该法案将收紧选举规则，要求选民在投票时出示带照片的身份证件，并提供美国公民身份证明。

总统表示，该立法对于阻止“非法移民和其他未获许可人员投票”至关重要。
国会民主党人谴责《SAVE法案》是压制选民的工具，称该法案允许美国国土安全部（DHS）监控美国人的选民信息，并为已婚女性投票设置障碍，还有其他多项指控。
该法案要求在联邦选举中注册投票时必须提供公民身份证明，强制各州主动核实并从选民名单中移除非公民，扩大与包括国土安全部在内的联邦机构的信息共享以核实公民身份，并对为非公民登记投票的行为增设刑事处罚。

但克林顿并非唯一持此观点的人——今年2月早些时候，其他众议院民主党人也类似地声称，该立法将使已婚女性无法投票，除非她们修改出生证明以与其他政府签发的身份证件相符。

但共和党人表示，他们已针对该指控作出回应并予以驳斥。
“这完全是无稽之谈，我们专门加入了一项条款，确保没有人会被排除在外，”德克萨斯州共和党众议员奇普·罗伊（Chip Roy）在议会中领导了《SAVE法案》和《SAVE America法案》的推进工作，他表示民主党人“真的是在牵强附会地进行批评”。
“如果一名女性试图用出生证明和驾照上不同的姓名登记投票，”罗伊说，“我们在法律中明确规定，你只需签署一份伪证罪处罚下的宣誓书，声明‘我就是这个人。这是我的出生证明……这是反映我已婚姓名的驾照。’”
该法案确实将出生证明列为选民确认身份的一种方式，但并未明确要求姓氏匹配。
选民可以使用“由申请人出生所在州签发的经认证的出生证明……（包含申请人的全名、出生日期和出生地）”来补充其他形式的身份证明。

除其他有效文件外，选民还可以出示护照、REAL ID或军事身份证以证明公民身份。
保守派法律团体联邦党人协会（The Federalist Society）公布了该法案的内容，明确指出因婚姻或其他原因更改姓名的美国人“不会被禁止投票”。
该组织网页称：“两党制的联邦选举援助委员会（EAC）根据《SAVE法案》被要求制定各州接受补充文件的指南——例如结婚证——以在选民的出生证明和当前姓名不符时证明其公民身份。”“那些声称《SAVE法案》将剥夺数百万已婚女性选举权的左翼人士完全错误；他们应该阅读法案文本，就会发现其中提供了确保这种情况不会发生的机制。”

Clinton accuses GOP voter bill of targeting married women — Republicans call it ‘nonsense’
Trump urged Republican lawmakers to pass the SAVE Act

Hillary Clinton is claiming that Republican voter legislation will make it harder for married women to vote — an assertion GOP lawmakers and officials already say they’ve debunked.
“You didn’t have to listen to Trump’s rambling speech last night to know that Republicans are trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to vote—especially married women,” Clinton posted on X Wednesday. “They’ve already made it clear. Time to fight back.”
Clinton was referring to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night.
The president called on Congress to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, which would tighten election rules and require voters to present a photo ID at the polls and proof of U.S. citizenship.

The president said the legislation is critical in order to stop “illegal aliens and other unpermitted persons from voting.”
Congressional Democrats have panned the SAVE Act as a tool of voter suppression — saying it’s a bill that allows the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to monitor Americans’ voter information and create barriers for married women to vote, among several other claims.
The bill would require proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, mandate states to actively verify and remove noncitizens from voter rolls, expand information sharing with federal agencies, including DHS, to verify citizenship, and create new criminal penalties for registering noncitizens to vote.

But Clinton isn’t alone — other House Democrats earlier in February also similarly claimed that the legislation would leave married women unable to vote unless they changed their birth certificates to match other government-issued ID.

But Republicans say they’ve already addressed the claim and debunked it.
“This is absolute nonsense, and we specifically allow for a provision to make sure that no one can possibly be left behind,” Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, who led both the SAVE Act and SAVE America Act in the House, said, while arguing Democrats were “really reaching” for criticism.
“If a woman tried to register to vote with different names on her birth certificate and driver’s license,” Roy said, “we literally put in the statute that all you have to do is sign an affidavit under penalty of perjury that, ‘I am that person. This is my birth certificate… and this is my driver’s license that is reflecting my married name.’”
The bill does list a birth certificate as one way voters can confirm their identity. It does not specify a last-name match requirement.
Voters can use “a certified birth certificate issued by a state in which the applicant was born… (that) includes the full name, date of birth and place of birth of the applicant” to supplement other forms of identification.

Among other forms of valid paperwork, voters can also display a passport, a REAL ID or a military identification card to prove their citizenship.
Conservative legal group The Federalist Society presented a breakdown of the bill, which explicitly says that Americans who have changed their names — because of marriage or otherwise — are “not prevented from voting.”
“The bipartisan federal Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is commanded by the SAVE Act to establish guidelines for states to accept supplementary documents — for instance, a marriage license — to prove citizenship when a voter’s birth certificate and current name do not match,” the group’s page reads. “Those on the Left who claim that the SAVE Act will disenfranchise millions of married women are simply wrong; they ought to read the bill’s text and see that it provides mechanisms to ensure that this does not happen.”
