protecting election integrity
She will protect election integrity.
Occurrences
The Senate should advance the SAVE America Act by enforcing a talking filibuster, if that’s what it takes to secure our elections.
Only Americans should vote in American elections. By enacting a constitutional amendment banning non-citizens from voting, we can secure our elections and give the American people confidence at the ballot box.
Evidence
Congresswoman Julia Letlow is urging the United States Senate to enforce a “talking filibuster” requirement to pass the SAVE America Act and send it to President Trump’s desk. The press release says the bill would require proof of citizenship when registering to vote and photo identification when casting a ballot, and that the House had already passed the SAVE America Act with Letlow’s support.
The press release lists Julia Letlow among the House Republican cosponsors of a constitutional amendment to ensure only U.S. citizens vote in federal elections, stating that the measure “protects the integrity of our elections” and affirms that only American citizens should vote in American elections.
Letlow’s official votes page shows recent House activity through April 30, 2026, including votes on other legislation, but no completed election-integrity enactment or final passage on that page. The page also directs constituents to view the latest votes and roll call votes in Congress.
The member homepage’s latest-news section highlights recent activity in May 2026, including an art competition announcement and other district work, but it does not show any completed election-integrity accomplishment or signed election-related law in the lookback window.
The official bill text shows H.R. 22 as the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a federal election-integrity bill requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections.
The Congressional Record reflects Senate floor debate on the SAVE America Act, describing it as a vote about requiring photo ID and proof of citizenship to vote. It shows the measure was being debated but not yet enacted into law.
The Senate record again discusses the SAVE America Act as legislation that would require proof of citizenship and photo ID, indicating continued debate rather than final resolution or enactment during the period reviewed.
The Clerk’s member page confirms Julia Letlow’s current House service in the 119th Congress and shows her office details and committee assignments, but does not list any election-integrity enactment or final legislative delivery in the lookback period.
Congress.gov lists H.R. 22 as the SAVE Act, sponsored by Rep. Chip Roy and introduced January 3, 2025. The bill summary says it would require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, require ongoing state steps to ensure only citizens are registered, and remove noncitizens from voter rolls. Its tracker shows status Passed House, with latest action in the Senate on April 10, 2025: received in the Senate.
The House Clerk records Roll Call 102 on April 10, 2025 as On Passage for H.R. 22, SAVE Act. The status was Passed, 220 yeas to 208 nays. The vote list records Letlow, Republican of Louisiana, as Yea.
The engrossed House bill text identifies H.R. 22 as the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act. It would amend the National Voter Registration Act to require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register for federal elections and bars states from accepting and processing a registration application unless proof is presented.
Letlow's official House release says she urged the Senate to advance the SAVE America Act, described the measure as requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration and photo identification when voting, and stated that the House had already passed the bill with her support. The same release says the measure had not yet received a Senate vote.
Rep. Laurel Lee's official release says she introduced a constitutional amendment to require that only U.S. citizens vote in federal elections and lists Julia Letlow among the members joining the effort. Letlow is quoted supporting a constitutional amendment to ban noncitizen voting and secure elections.
Congress.gov explains that enacted bills and joint resolutions appear on the public laws list after NARA assigns public law numbers. The 119th Congress public-law list shown includes public laws through PL 119-79 and does not include H.R. 22 or the SAVE Act.
Assessments
Letlow took concrete federal legislative action toward the promise during her current House term: she voted for House passage of H.R. 22/SAVE Act, supported its proof-of-citizenship voter-registration provisions, urged Senate action, and joined a related constitutional amendment effort. However, the cited record shows the SAVE Act had not passed the Senate or become law, and no other completed federal election-integrity enactment attributable to Letlow is shown. Because this was a serious attempt but the promised outcome was not delivered, the proper rating is never with an effort badge.
The promise is broad, but the available evidence shows Letlow took concrete same-term action on election-integrity measures rather than achieving a completed outcome. She supported the House-passed SAVE America Act and publicly pressed the Senate to advance it, and she was also listed as a cosponsor of a constitutional amendment framed as protecting election integrity by ensuring only citizens vote in federal elections. Those are meaningful legislative efforts attributable to her. However, the evidence also indicates these measures were still under debate and had not been enacted into law by the end of the lookback window, and there is no documented completed election-integrity delivery tied to her office. Because she materially supported relevant legislation but did not secure a final enacted result, the best judgment is partial rather than delivered or never.
