Nikema Williams Opposes SAVE Act as Voter Suppression in Georgia

Published | Video Starts at 00:22

The SAVE act is everything our civil rights leaders fought against. And don't think that it won't impact you or folks that you know. If you got married and changed your name, your id, it won't match your birth certificate.

CLAIM

Asserts that name changes due to marriage can cause ID mismatches with birth certificates.
