Republican Lawmakers Have One Message After Trump's Speech: Pass the SAVE America Act!

President Donald Trump addressed the nation on Thursday night and shared deeply troubling revelations about attempted Chinese interference in American elections in 2020 on a wide scale that he says intelligence agencies in the U.S. tried to keep under wraps.

As RedState reported, Trump said the documents he ordered declassified and released to the public (which can be viewed here) detail "China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files" related to the 2020 elections. Further, as we also noted, a "DHS evaluation of state voter rolls and public records revealed that 278,000 non-citizens are registered to vote in federal elections."

Not surprisingly, Republican lawmakers and Trump cabinet officials were nearly united behind one message: Pass the SAVE America Act.

Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL):

Tonight’s revelations in @POTUS’ speech were truly shocking. 

 

Communist China is our ENEMY and will stop at nothing to undermine our republic and destroy our way of life. The deep state will stop at nothing to stay in power and control the American people.

It should be clear to every American citizen — Republican, Democrat, and Independent — that it has NEVER been more crucial to secure our elections against fraud and foreign interference.

We need the SAVE America Act NOW. The Senate should be IN WASHINGTON working around the clock to get this done. Use or lose the filibuster. Cancel recess. Whatever it takes. However long it takes.

As @POTUS just demonstrated, the Senate must immediately pass the SAVE America Act, and we must hold all foreign adversaries and their conspirators accountable for trying to meddle in America’s elections and undermine our democracy.

278,000 noncitizens registered to vote.

It is more important than ever to crush foreign election interference.

It is more important than ever to pass the SAVE AMERICA ACT.

Over 250,000 non-citizens registered to vote in federal elections, per DHS.

Is this what Democrats want for America?

The SAVE America Act has never been more important than it is right now.

278,000 non-citizens registered to vote in federal elections. This isn’t rhetoric. This is data.

Rep. Mike Collins (GA-10), GOP Senate nominee:

Our right to free and secure elections should be protected relentlessly, and every American should be alarmed by our enemies’ ability to disrupt our elections and jeopardize our right to vote. 

Eighty-three percent of Americans support voter ID, and there is no time more important than now to pass the SAVE America Act and safeguard democracy.

As I have said many times, we must pass the SAVE America Act. The American people overwhelmingly support it. Let’s act now.

— Senator Dave McCormick (@SenMcCormickPA) July 17, 2026

If we don’t pass the SAVE America Act, we might as well all pack up and go home.

Blow up the filibuster. Whatever it takes🇺🇸 https://t.co/uzSEfiwSJY

Rep. John James (MI-10), GOP gubernatorial candidate:

🚨BREAKING: PRESIDENT TRUMP EXPOSES MAJOR ELECTION FRAUD IN MICHIGAN!

They rigged the election in 2020. Who was Secretary of State? Jocelyn Benson.

Who’s managing the 2026 election? Jocelyn Benson.

Department of Transportation (DOT) Sec. Sean Duffy:

Proud to be at this historic event with my wife, Rachel. 

President Trump is right! We don’t have a country if we don’t have elections we can trust. We deserve a system that can’t be hacked, voter photo ID, proof of citizenship, paper ballots, mail in only for overseas military and the sick. 

Pass the SAVE AMERICA ACT Congress!

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Sec. Markwayne Mullin:

Election security is national security.

As @POTUS announced tonight— @DHSgov has identified over 250,000 potential non-citizens illegally registered to vote in just 4 U.S. states.

Only Americans should be electing American leaders.

Tune in tomorrow at 11am ET. https://t.co/Pg9MyNH0ln

Sec. of State Marco Rubio:

Without trust, there can be no greatness.

Under @POTUS, the Trump Administration will rout out foreign interference in our elections and safeguard our democracy.

America’s future belongs to Americans. https://t.co/5AAnqudvcA

Election integrity is not a partisan issue, it is an AMERICAN ISSUE.

Let us unite and pass the SAVE America Act and ensure every American's right to vote in a free and fair election is protected. pic.twitter.com/VRsQUqUbtn

Amen.
