Leavitt Defends SAVE America Act Push at Turning Point Event with Erika Kirk
The White House press secretary said the measure is needed to curb voter fraud after a student cited only a few hundred cases.
- On Thursday, April 2, 2026, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the SAVE Act during a Turning Point USA event at George Washington University in Washington.
- The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which passed the House in February, requires proof of citizenship for federal voter registration but currently lacks the 60 votes needed to overcome a Senate filibuster.
- Leavitt responded to a student's question by stating "voter ID is not the law of the land" and citing data showing more than 80 percent of Americans support ID requirements.
- Characterizing opposition as "insulting," Leavitt argued Democrats should support the legislation as common-sense policy ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
- The SAVE Act remains one of the most heated pieces of legislation in Washington, D.C. ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, having passed the House but failing to clear the Senate.
