AMAC Action received an overwhelming response from its grassroots network after launching a nationwide campaign urging Congress to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. AMAC members sent more than 56,000 messages to their senators and representatives urging them to vote “yes” on the bill, which is aimed at strengthening election security.
AMAC members from all 50 states made their voices heard. Florida led the way, with 4,423 messages, followed by Texas at 4,099, California at 3,932, Pennsylvania at 3,814, and Arizona at 2,710.
In total, the campaign reached 528 of 535 members of Congress in both the House and Senate, with some senators receiving as many as 1,800 messages from AMAC members.
This overwhelming response reflects strong support among AMAC members for the SAVE America Act, which requires documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote, establishes strict photo ID requirements for federal elections, and reigns in mail-in ballot laws that election integrity experts have identified as a serious vulnerability.
The House passed the SAVE America Act in April, but the legislation has been stalled in the Senate due to the upper chamber’s filibuster rule, which requires most legislation to have at least 60 votes to advance. Republicans currently hold a 53-47 majority, and Democrats remain staunchly opposed to the bill.
President Trump has publicly urged Senate Majority Leader John Thune to cancel the scheduled August recess until the Senate passes the SAVE Act, while also calling on Republicans to use a “talking filibuster,” which would require Democrats to physically hold the flood to block it.
This latest full-court press notably comes following a shocking revelation in New Jersey that at least 6,600 non-citizens had been “accidentally” registered to vote, and that at least 400 actually voted from 2023 to 2024. Earlier this month, President Trump also announced that “hundreds of thousands” of non-citizens and deceased individuals are still active on voter rolls.
Polling among both Republicans and Democrats has consistently found strong public support for many of the bill’s election integrity provisions. Surveys show that more than 80 percent of Americans support Voter ID, including a majority of Democrats and Independents.
AMAC Action proudly supported the SAVE America Act by submitting a formal letter outlining why proof-of-citizenship requirements and Voter ID are essential for preserving the integrity of American democracy.
As the Senate considers its next steps on the SAVE Act, AMAC Action will continue mobilizing its nationwide network of activists and supporters.
