Common Cause’s Florida Executive Director Amy Keith condemns the legislature for passing HB 991, a bill removing eligible U.S. citizens from being able to vote.  

“Starting in January 2027, thousands of U.S. citizens will be removed from Florida’s voter rolls, blocking them from voting in the next Presidential election if they can’t afford specific documents,” Keith said. “Life is getting increasingly harder and more expensive in Florida, but with this bill legislators are purging the very voters who are suffering most from Florida’s affordability crisis. I don’t think that’s a coincidence.”

“Common Cause will continue to fight for and support all eligible Florida voters to register to vote and stay on the voter rolls. We work year round to help voters cut through the red tape that the legislator keeps putting in their way.”
