Requiring an ID to vote shouldn’t be controversial. Voting is one of the most sacred responsibilities we have as Americans — and we must protect it by ensuring only U.S. citizens are participating in our elections.

Unfortunately, our current Congressman disagrees.

Last week, the House passed the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act) — a commonsense bill that simply requires documentary proof of citizenship, like a passport or birth certificate, when registering or updating voter registration. It also directs states to remove noncitizens from the voter rolls.

It’s straightforward. It’s secure. And it’s long overdue.

But our Congressman voted against it — choosing politics over election integrity and opening the door to voter fraud.

Let’s be clear: countries like Germany, the U.K., and Japan require voter ID. Why shouldn’t we? Here in the U.S., over 80% of Americans support requiring ID to vote. It’s not partisan — it’s just common sense.

The 49th District deserves leadership that reflects those values — not someone who votes against protecting the very foundation of our democracy.

I fully support the grassroots effort to get Voter ID on the 2026 ballot here in California, and I’ll do everything I can to help make it law. It's time to restore trust in our elections and return accountability to our system.
