The SAVE America Act Is the Most Popular Election Reform in Decades

The following is from the Trump team. 

President Donald J. Trump is urgently calling on Congress to pass the SAVE America Act immediately and safeguard America’s elections from illegal voting. The legislation includes straightforward protections to safeguard America’s elections and enjoys overwhelming bipartisan support — except from Radical Left Democrats in Washington who are putting their own political power above the will of the people.

FACT: Voter ID requirements are extremely popular with the American people.

  • The bipartisan Commission on Federal Election Reform, co-chaired by former President Jimmy Carter, noted that “IDs currently are needed to board a plane, enter federal buildings, and cash a check. Voting is equally important.”
  • Charles Stewart, Founder and Director of the MIT Election Lab: “Regardless of how you poll, voters like a requirement for photo ID… I mean it’s kind of a no-brainer for a large swath of the American public … including most Democrats.”
  • Harvard CAPS/Harris: 81% of Americans favor voter ID, including 79% of independents and 70% of Democrats.
  • Pew Research Center: 83% of Americans — including wide majorities of Democrats, independents, Whites, Blacks, and Latinos — favor voter ID requirements.
  • Gallup: 84% support voter ID, with 98% of Republicans, 84% of independents, and 67% of Democrats on board — while an equally robust 83% back proof of citizenship for voter registration.
  • Rasmussen Reports: 75% support voter ID, with support increasing over the past decade.
  • Additional surveys, including from Napolitan News Service and The Center Square, consistently reveal extraordinary bipartisan support for voter ID.

FACT: Voter ID laws have no measurable negative effect on turnout.

  • Following Georgia’s 2021 voter ID law, the state achieved record turnout in both the 2022 and 2024 elections.
  • 2021 review by the National Bureau of Economic Research, analyzing a decade of data, determined voter ID laws “have no negative effect on registration or turnout, overall or for any group defined by race, gender, age, or party affiliation.”
  • 2014 study in the Election Law Journal found “little support for the hypothesis that notification of ID requirements depresses turnout.”
  • 2023 report by the America First Policy Institute stated voter ID laws are “not a significant cause for decreased turnout” and “do not negatively affect minority or demographic-specific turnout,” noting that several states (and entire countries) with photo ID laws actually had higher turnout than those without.
  • 2009 study in PS: Political Science & Politics concluded voter ID laws “have not had a significant impact on voting” and show “little to no effect on aggregate or individual-level turnout.”
  • 2006 study by the Crime Prevention Research Center found “[i]t is hard to see any evidence that voting regulations differentially harm either minorities, the elderly, or the poor,” and that “[r]egulations that prevent fraud are shown to actually increase the voter participation rate.”
  • 2007 analysis by the Heritage Foundation found that “voter identification requirements, such as requiring non-photo and photo identification, have virtually no suppressive effect on reported voter turnout.”

FACT: Voting by mail increases the risk of fraud.

  • The Commission on Federal Election Reform warned that voting by mail is “likely to increase the risks of fraud and of contested elections,” that “absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud,” and that “vote buying schemes are far more difficult to detect when citizens vote by mail.”
  • 2012 New York Times investigation revealed that “votes cast by mail are less likely to be counted, more likely to be compromised and more likely to be contested than those cast in a voting booth.”
  • In 2024, the House Republican Policy Committee found that mass mail-in voting “increases opportunities for error in fraud in states that do not maintain clean voter rolls” and “brings about an inherent set of risks that jeopardize the integrity of American elections and create absurdities that dampen faith in our electoral system.”
  • MIT Election Data + Science Lab: “[E]ven many scholars who argue that fraud is generally rare agree that fraud with [voting by mail] voting seems to be more frequent than with in-person voting.”
  • A 2023 Heartland Institute/Rasmussen poll found that 21% of mail-in-voters admitted to at least one form of voter fraud in the 2020 election.
  • 2020 report by the Heritage Foundation described widespread absentee and early voting as “vulnerable to being misdirected, stolen, forged, and altered,” with voters susceptible to intimidation, unlawful assistance, or pressure from campaigns and activists.
  • In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court, citing absentee ballot fraud in an Indiana primary, affirmed that “not only is the risk of voter fraud real but that it could affect the outcome of a close election.”

FACT: Proving citizenship to vote is a no-brainer.

  • 85% of Americans agree that only U.S. citizens should vote in our elections and three quarters support proof of citizenship to vote.
  • Commission on Federal Election Reform: “The right to vote is a vital component of U.S. citizenship, and all states should use their best efforts to obtain proof of citizenship before registering voters.”

FACT: Americans overwhelmingly support the SAVE America Act

  • Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll: 71% support the SAVE America Act — including 69% of independents and half of rank-and-file Democrats.
    • 80% want states to purge non-citizens from voter rolls.
    • 60% call the SAVE America Act a “commonsense way to stop fraud and protect the security of our elections.”
    • 58% recognize at least some voter fraud exists in the U.S.

  1. Not with Thune and his cronies in the Senate, which is why it will never see the light of day.

    • Thune hates the very place his blonde haired grand-children live: Main Street, SD. He would rather love Ol’ Turtle Neck McConnell and the Chinese money.

  2. John Thune has failed the republican party and America… The spineless China puppet needs to end the filibuster and pass Trumps America first agenda! Thune is a loser head of the uniparty deep state scum!

  3. Yes it is popular and look what the RINOs are doing. They will stall this bill until it cannot be implemented for the 2026 Election, at which time they, after heavy modifications, will pass it. Then they will pat themselves on the back say how they did the will of the people. I was born at night but not last night

  4. Which simply means that Thune and the rest of the anti-American critters in congress will be voting against it and will not let it pass.

  5. The SAVE Act finally drives the stake home into the heart of the Democratic Vampires once and for all! This is why they fear it like sunlight. It destroys them.

      • Thune and the rest of the RINO’s are F’d. They have been compromised and exposed without an avenue of retreat. They’re done politically and their only hope is to not have their remains defiled. The SAVE Act will be implemented by executive order. Our elections have been tainted by foreign interference.

  6. If Trumps version of the Save America Act doesn't get passed we will lose in November and then it's game over!! But this is truly what the uni-party RINO's want. They are comfortable with business as usual and the heck with the American people and the good for the USA!!

    • If we lose in November, then it's game over for them. Let them come at us with their brooms and pitchforks. It would be a short battle.

  7. The vast majority of voters, honest people and even Democrats want this passed. Only RINO compromised Thune , RINOs and corrupt politicians don’t want it!

  8. There is only one reason the Democrats and RINOs don't want the SAVE act and fair voting. That reason is they want to cheat.
    If they can cheat, they rule over US no different than a dictator.
    Yes, we will be under a dictatorship. A tyrant.

  9. Thune is leading the “Money into OUR wallets, not Yours” charge. Any politician ignoring the will of the People is corrupt!

  10. Why aren’t Republicans and the GOP Acting to SAVE AMERICA?
    RINOs need to rescue our Republic or their a$$es aligned with Democrats are irrelevant to American sovereignty.

  11. Call that reprobate traitor John Thune and let him know what you think:

    Senator John Thune
    United States Senate SD-511
    Washington, DC 20510
    Phone: (202) 224-2321
    Fax: (202) 228-5429
    Toll-Free: 1-866-850-3855

  12. If all the illegals voted GOP you would need 3 forms of ID to vote, that whole party is useless.

  13. Where is THUNE ? The SAVE act needs to be passed or REPLACE THUNE ,. Replacing THUNE may ensure Republican's victory in the midterms.

  14. This is a republicans issue to lose. If we can't get behind this then we have quite a few compromised politicians that need to retire.

  15. When a law is based on common sense, it normally garners across-the-board support.

    Which begs the question, why is the party of the KKK so against it? logical answer, they cheat to win.

  16. Everyone wonders how pieces of garbage like McConnell, Cornyn, Graham, Tillis, etc. keep getting re-elected. How did they even get past the primary process? Aside from the rampantly corrupt structure in the local and state GOP (democrats too), if someone with good ideas, principles, honesty, etc. ever looked like they had a chance to win and undermine the UNIPARTY, the corrupt election mechanisms would simply be employed.

    People wonder how 80+% can be in favor of the Save Act (or at least voter ID and honest elections) and yet they won't vote on it. THEY LOVE TO CHEAT TOO!!!! AMERICA wants regime change in massive ways that would implicate both worthless parties. Enabling change at the ballot box simply cannot be allowed anymore. The power structure, the bribery, the moneylaundering, the child sex parties, and all the rest simply cannot end for these folks.

    • This existential truth couldn't be more obvious to even the most casual observer, yet 90% of the folks posting on these comment threads are still convinced it's red vs blue, Democrat vs Republican.

      THE REPUBLICANS ARE ON THE INSIDE WHAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE ON THE OUTSIDE AND VICE VERSA!! THE UNITED STATES IS A ONE-PARTY STATE MASQUERADING AS A TWO-PARTY STATE!!

    • Each state GOP is beholden to the RNC. Look at Michigan when grass roots took control Rona McDaniel pulled all RNC money going to Michigan. Grassroots team had developed a list of America First grass roots candidates and RNC demanded their own slate out if MI. Then the smear campaign started and Pete HOAXstra colluded with the old school MIGOP power players (Romney's, Chaos, Mier's) to oust the duly elected grass roots leadership, getting deep state judge to rule on HOAX's behalf. So these power hungry state GOP leaders are in bed with DC. We The People need to break these cartels in the states and counties to have a chance
      .

  17. Genocide don could have stopped the election fraud back in 2020 but he turned traitor and allowed an illegitimate government to take power. His rich buddies told him he doesn't want to do that and if he plays ball he will be allowed to steal elections too. The uniparty has been stealing elections for decades and donny made damn sure they can continue to steal them.
    This is want happens when people wipe their arse with our Constitution.

  18. This act will be the LIFE or DEATH of the REPUBLICAN party: if this act is not allowed to go forward the "Grand" Old Elephant will fade into the scrap box of history.

  19. "The SAVE America Act Is the Most Popular Election Reform in Decades"
    —- YET ANOTHER THING ABOUT REAL AMERICANS THAT THE POS UNIPARTY RINOS IN THE SENATE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT…AND COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT.

  20. It should be referred to as the SAVE Your Breath Act because it's NEVER going to happen. The Uniparty will NOT cede power to the people. Election rigging and selected candidate management is the keystone of their power.

  21. DEMOCRATS: PARTY OVER PEOPLE

    A majority of Democrat voters WANT voter ID, yet the Democrats in Congress refuse to vote for it. Does that sound like they're representing their voters, to you??

  22. "The SAVE America Act Is the Most Popular Election Reform in Decades". Yes it is, but not with politicians.

  23. Getting our voting laws cleaned up and in order, to prevent fraud, is essential if we are to stay a true and free Republic!!!

    ANYONE that has an I.Q. of more than 70 should already see this!!!

    IF, there are those that refuse to see, and agree with this, then you can bet that they are NOT AMERICA FRIENDLY!!!
    AND,
    most likely working for someone or some organization that IS NOT America first!!!

    ANY CONGRESS REPRESENTATIVE THAT VOTES AGAINST THE SAVE AMERICA ACT SHOULD BE VOTED OUT OF CONGRESS ASAP!!!

    THEY ARE NOT AN AMERICAN REPRESENTATIVE IN YOUR BEST INTEREST, OR, IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!

    • Except for the long contested 2000 election (Bush v. Gore) that FL tried to manipulate when it was in D's hands in the 3 (then) heavily-Dem counties of Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach.

      And there was evidence of some cheating by both sides, but mostly by the Gore side.

  24. The Save America Act is the most important voting act since the 1960's, and only the democrats and RINOs oppose it because with this proposed legislation, they will have a very difficult time get elected or re-elected.

  25. The SAVE act is not going to get passed, because the uniparty does not want it to pass. With that said, it is really the states that run the elections. Many states already require some form of ID. Here are the states that require no ID at all. If you live in one of these states pressure your state legislature to pass voter ID laws.

    California
    Illinois
    Maine
    Maryland
    Massachusetts
    Minnesota
    Nevada
    New Jersey
    New Mexico
    New York
    Oregon
    Vermont
    D.C (district)

  26. Well Schumer and the Democrats are worried about losing 10 million illegal democrat voters If the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, also known as the SAVE Act is passed. Not to mention the beginning of dismantling the Democrat's election fraud organization.

  27. Thune needs to be called out Daily. I don’t blame him, he’s a clown. I blame the other MAGA Conservative Senators, Mike Johnson AND President Trump for not putting extreme public pressure squarely on Thune’s pin head.

  28. Democrats are front and center against this, why? Could it be without illegal voters they would lose?

  29. This is the prefect issue to shut down the government. Force the Democrats to defend their massive voter fraud operations for all the world to see.

  30. The most popular Act …and the republican congress senate “leader” says he doesn’t have the votes to pass!!??
    GET RID of little Johnny McThune The Worthless.

  31. To bad the Senate doesn't want it. They will make sure it dies. They don't care about the country and the citizens. The only care about their elite club that access to the treasury so they can loot it.

  32. "Never let a crisis go to waste."
    — — It is most likely that the "crises" of immigration and getting that bill passed, will be used to advance the causes of national and electronic/biometric IDs. Along with whatever other rotten crud which can be sneaked in. … Such moves are often the biggest danger of popular demands.
    — — STILL, voter ID and proof of citizenship needs to be a requirement. Just be aware of the game.

  33. Did you know Lincoln made it law to become a U.S. citizen to vote and pay taxes? Click on my pic and learn more, and he opened the IRS in 1862? The only ones from our government that are missing are you.

  34. Thune needs to hear the wrath of MAGA loudly! The only reason for mail in and other types of voting are to be able to facilitate the fraud.

  35. The democrats are against it because everyone is for it to ensure that we have a fair election with live folks who are citizens whose votes will not be reduced with the illegal crap trying to get those who pay for their votes in to office
