The SAVE America Act: Secures Elections, Protects Our Votes, Restores Trust

WASHINGTON - House Republicans have been clear: only American citizens should decide American elections.

That's why the House previously passed the SAVE Act twice in consecutive Congresses to require proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections - and why House Republicans have reintroduced and continued advancing that legislation in this Congress.

Now, the SAVE America Act builds on that effort by strengthening election integrity standards, including requiring valid government-issued photo identification to vote in federal elections.

VOTER ID HAS OVERWHELMING NATIONAL SUPPORT

National polling shows Americans strongly support voter ID requirements.

Pew Research Center:

• 83% of Americans support requiring government-issued photo ID.
• Notably, 71% of Democrats favor voter ID requirements.
• • 76% of Black voters support photo ID
  • 82% of Latino voters support photo ID

Fox News:

Gallup:

• 84% of Americans support requiring photo identification to vote.
• 83% support requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote for the first time.
• Support includes:
• • 98% of Republicans
  • 84% of independents
  • 67% of Democrats

Few issues in American politics command that level of bipartisan agreement.

Republicans are listening to the American people - and Democrats are ignoring them.

THINGS YOU NEED AN ID FOR:

• To drive.
• To open a bank account.
• To buy cold medicine.
• Renting a hotel room.
• Buying a beer.
• Boarding a flight.
• Donating blood.
• To sign up for government benefits.
• To get into the Democrat National Convention.

BOTTOM LINE:

This is simple, if you need an ID to live your daily life, you should need an ID to choose the leader of the free world. American elections are sacred; only American citizens decide them.
