AMAC Action Delegates Advance Membership’s Priorities on Capitol Hill

Washington, D.C. – Five teams of AMAC Action Delegates descended on Capitol Hill this week for 33 meetings with sitting Members of Congress and top-level staffers to advance key priorities of the AMAC membership ahead of this November’s pivotal elections.

The trip was a resounding success, with Delegates working to secure commitments from lawmakers to support the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE ) Act, a crucial election integrity bill recently introduced by Rep. Chip Roy and Senator Mike Lee. Among other important provisions, this legislation would require states to obtain proof of citizenship – in person – when registering an individual to vote and would require states to remove non-citizens from existing voter rolls.

Delegates also urged the legislators they spoke with to make the Trump tax cuts permanent. This would be a major boost for small businesses and working families, particularly as inflation and the skyrocketing cost of living resulting from Bidenomics continue to erode Americans’ financial security.

Additionally, the team of Delegates presented Congressional members with AMAC Action’s Social Security Guarantee, a plan that would financially stabilize Social Security for decades without raising taxes. As Social Security faces a solvency crisis, AMAC Action is leading the way to ensure Americans who have paid into the system for decades continue to receive the benefits they are owed.

AMAC Action President Bob Carlstrom issued the following statement at the conclusion of the meetings: “It was an exhilarating day on the Hill for our Delegates. They had the opportunity to participate in our lobbying efforts personally and gained valuable experience in the legislative process. Many look forward to another trip to Capitol Hill.”

AMAC Action Delegates are volunteers who help advance AMAC Action’s issues portfolio in their local Congressional District and at the state level. Delegates represent the voice of AMAC members in their communities and are a vital part of AMAC Action’s work.
