Axios reported that the House-passed reconciliation blueprint included "$10 billion in funding" aimed at incentivizing states to adopt elements of the SAVE America Act, and described grants to encourage states to adopt voter ID requirements.
Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This explains the substance behind Kelly's Yea vote on H.Con.Res.113: the budget framework was being used to account for SAVE America Act-related election-security provisions through state incentives for voter ID and related practices. Because this was a House budget framework and not final enacted law, it supports delivery of Kelly's support commitment but only partial policy enactment.

Kelly fulfilled the support commitment in his current House term by voting Yea on H.Con.Res.113 on July 22, 2026, the House FY2027 budget resolution tied to advancing SAVE America Act-related election-security incentives such as voter ID and state election-practice grants. The record does not show final enactment, and H.R.7008 appears unrelated to election security, but the promise was framed as supporting these provisions rather than securing enactment. In federal office context, a House vote materially supporting the relevant budget vehicle is enough for delivery.
