Sample Text for 2024 Cross-over emails to Senators


Dear Senator,

I write to ask you to vote NO on the following 9 bills. Each of these Democrat-sponsored bills that have passed the House of Delegates damages our ability to keep Virginia elections secure, fair, and accountable to Virginia voters.Ê Your opposition to these bills will send a strong message to Governor Youngkin to veto them all if they pass. Please show your support for election integrity by voting NO on these bills:


HB 26 - Voter identification; accepted forms of identification, private entities licensed or certified.
(Allows private entities licensed by state agencies to issue IDs for voting purposes that do not require proof of residency.)

HB 623 - Rights of voters; covered practices, civil cause of action, standing, jurisdiction, and venue.
(Multiple issues).

HB 904 - Voter registration; list maintenance activities, cancellation procedures, required record matches.
(Limits the data that can be used for voter list maintenance from multiple sources including other states, limits staff assessments for voter list maintenance,  removes the Registrar from decision-making and eliminates deadlines.)
