AMAC Action continues to deliver results for our members at both the federal and state levels, advancing commonsense conservative policies that protect election integrity, defend constitutional rights, lower health care costs, and safeguard individual liberty. From Capitol Hill to statehouses across the country, AMAC members are making their voices heard – and lawmakers are listening.
VICTORY: SAVE America Act Passes the House
AMAC members have long supported the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act – now strengthened and advanced as the SAVE America Act. The latest version of the bill includes enhanced voter ID provisions, an important improvement that reinforces confidence in our elections.
AMAC Action was proud to support the updated legislation, submitting a formal letter of support outlining why proof-of-citizenship requirements and voter ID protections are essential to preserving election integrity.
AMAC members have been deeply engaged on this issue throughout this Congress and the last. Their consistent advocacy has helped build the momentum necessary to move this critical legislation forward.
With House passage secured, AMAC Action is now developing a strategic plan to help advance the SAVE America Act in the U.S. Senate. Our members understand that secure elections are foundational to self-government – and we are committed to seeing this effort through.
AMAC Action at Work in the States
While federal legislation garners headlines, much of the policy that affects Americans’ daily lives is shaped in state capitals. AMAC Action has recently submitted letters in support of key legislation in several states:
Ohio: Backing pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) reforms that would require rebates to be shared directly with patients at the pharmacy counter.
Arizona: Supporting election integrity legislation.
West Virginia: Advocating for a Vote Verification bill to strengthen ballot security.
AMAC Action also launched new initiatives to activate members in Pennsylvania on a Second Amendment issue and in Virginia on an election integrity issue – ensuring that grassroots voices are heard loud and clear.
Opposing a Taxpayer-Funded Gun Control Panel in Pennsylvania
In the Keystone State, AMAC Action has launched an opposition campaign against House Bill 2018, which would create a taxpayer-funded “panel” tasked with studying firearm-related issues and issuing policy recommendations. While that may sound innocent, the structure and implications of the proposal raise serious concerns.
Such panels are often stacked with individuals who already favor expanded gun control, meaning conclusions are effectively predetermined. The recommendations could be used to justify expanded red flag laws and additional restrictions on lawful gun owners.
Rather than objective research, the panel risks becoming government-funded advocacy. Recommendations from Pennsylvania could be cited by anti-gun lawmakers in other states as “evidence” to support broader national gun control efforts.
Although the panel itself would not pass laws, it could provide political cover for sweeping restrictions – not just in Pennsylvania, but throughout the country. AMAC members recognize that protecting the Second Amendment requires vigilance at every stage of the policymaking process.
Opposing the National Popular Vote Compact in Virginia
In Virginia, AMAC Action is mobilizing opposition to Senate Bill 322, which would enter the Commonwealth into the National Popular Vote (NPV) Compact.
Under the NPV Compact, Virginia would be required to award its Electoral College votes to the winner of the national popular vote – even if that candidate loses Virginia.
AMAC members have consistently and vehemently opposed the National Popular Vote Compact, supporting multiple campaigns in states considering NPV legislation. Our members understand that the Electoral College is a constitutional safeguard designed to preserve federalism and ensure that smaller and mid-sized states are not politically overshadowed by a handful of large population centers.
SB 322 represents another attempt to circumvent the Constitution’s carefully designed balance of power, and AMAC Action is committed to stopping it.
Banning Ranked-Choice Voting in Ohio
AMAC Action has also submitted written testimony in support of Ohio Senate Bill 63, which would prohibit ranked-choice voting (RCV) in the Buckeye State.
In his testimony before the Ohio House General Government Committee, AMAC Action Senior Vice President Andy Mangione emphasized that RCV introduces unnecessary complexity into elections that currently operate under the straightforward principle of “one person, one vote.”
Mangione warned that RCV systems increase voter confusion, create opportunities for strategic manipulation, and require costly upgrades to voting technology and voter education campaigns – all without solving any identifiable problem. He also noted that public skepticism toward RCV has been evident in multiple states where voters have rejected it at the ballot box.
Across these efforts – from securing elections at the federal level to defending constitutional rights and protecting consumers in the states – AMAC Action remains focused on delivering tangible results for our members. Through strategic advocacy, direct engagement, and grassroots mobilization, we will continue fighting to ensure that the values that made this country great are reflected in the laws that govern our nation.
