My Democratic colleagues and I will not let it pass.
Oppose and work to prevent passage of the SAVE America Act.
Occurrences
Evidence
Congress.gov lists H.R.7296 as the SAVE America Act, sponsored by Rep. Chip Roy, introduced January 30, 2026. Latest action: referred to the House Committee on House Administration. Status: Introduced.
The bill text says it may be cited as the “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act” or the “SAVE America Act” and would require proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration and photo identification for federal voting.
Congress.gov action history for H.R.7296 lists only introduction and referral to the House Committee on House Administration on January 30, 2026.
Congress.gov lists S.128, the Senate SAVE Act, as introduced by Sen. Mike Lee on January 16, 2025. Latest action: read twice and referred to the Committee on Rules and Administration. Status: Introduced.
Congress.gov lists 49 current cosponsors for S.128 and party statistics show Republican: 49.
Congress.gov shows H.R.22 passed the House on April 10, 2025 by 220-208 and was received in the Senate the same day. The tracker shows Passed House, not Passed Senate or Became Law.
Assessments
Official Congress.gov records show the relevant SAVE America Act/SAVE Act measures had not become law during Cortez Masto's current Senate term: H.R.7296 remained introduced and referred to House Administration, S.128 remained introduced and referred to Senate Rules and Administration, and H.R.22 passed the House but had only been received in the Senate. That supports the promised prevention of passage so far, and her absence from the Republican-only Senate cosponsor list is consistent with opposition. However, the record provided does not show a concrete Cortez Masto vote, sponsorship of blocking legislation, public campaign, or other material action, and the 119th Congress measure remained active rather than finally defeated. Credit is therefore partial rather than fully delivered.
