Now consider California—the bluest of blue states, long dominated by policies that prioritize open access over secure verification. Yet even here, the people have spoken decisively. Reform California, led by Assemblymember Carl DeMaio, has submitted over 1.35 million signatures for the California Voter ID Initiative—far surpassing the roughly 875,000 needed to qualify for the November ballot. If passed, this constitutional amendment would require photo ID to vote, mandate citizenship verification for registered voters, and ensure accurate voter rolls are maintained.
The most telling detail? Organizers report that nearly half of those signatures came from Democrats and independents. This isn’t a Republican-only push—it’s a bipartisan groundswell. Polling shows more than 70% of Californians support these reforms, including majorities of Democrats. Across all 58 counties, from urban centers to rural communities, everyday people are saying enough is enough. They understand that secure elections protect everyone’s voice, not suppress it.
These aren’t isolated incidents. They are proof that election integrity transcends party lines, geography, and even the most entrenched political machines. When given the chance to bypass politicians who resist common-sense safeguards, the American people step forward in record numbers. They collect signatures in blistering heat and snow storms, stand in line for hours, and demand accountability—not because they distrust their neighbors, but because they value the sacred trust of self-governance.

While we remain hopeful that the Senate will eventually pass the SAVE America Act—requiring proof of citizenship for federal voter registration and stronger ID rules nationwide—these state-level victories show that citizens aren’t waiting for Washington to act. They are taking the fight directly to the ballot box, where the people’s will cannot be ignored.
Understandably, some supporters of election integrity are questioning if the battle for the SAVE America Act is still worth the cost. They watch as leadership in the Senate dances around the talking filibuster, hoping our resolve will simply wither away.
Thankfully, true patriots like Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) refuse to accept defeat. They are charging forward, attempting to find new avenues to force a vote and hold the line for our election integrity. Rep. Luna has recently floated attaching the SAVE America Act to the upcoming FISA renewal vote to force action in the U.S. Senate.
Make no mistake: those in power are counting on your fatigue. They are waiting for us to lower our voices, take off the pressure, and wave the white flag of surrender. They want this bill to become nothing more than a forgotten footnote in history.
ACT for America will not be part of the surrender. We will not be silent while the very foundation of our Republic is at stake. Now is not the time to back down—it is the time to stand firmer than ever. President Trump has made it crystal clear—he won't sign any other legislation into law until Congress passes this pivotal election security bill.
Knowing this, we must continue to press U.S. Senators to pass the SAVE America Act. The people are awake. And when citizens unite across divides for something as fundamental as who gets to vote in America, victory is not just possible—it’s inevitable.

Stand with us. Defend our elections. Protect our republic. The time to act is now.
