SECURING AMERICAN ELECTIONS Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 28 (Tuesday, February 10, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 28 (Tuesday, February 10, 2026)] [House] [Page H2107] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] SECURING AMERICAN ELECTIONS (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I am grateful that this week House Republicans, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson, will vote on the SAVE Act. This legislation will work to ensure election security, restoring public trust in the electoral process. The bill would protect valuable rights through common sense, such as mandating a valid photo ID for all Federal elections, requiring documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote in Federal elections, and forcing States to identify and remove noncitizens from existing voter rolls. As a former Lexington County election commissioner, I know firsthand these reforms are basic, and opposition sadly reveals opening the door for ballot fraud. In conclusion, God bless our troops as the global war on terrorism continues. Trump is reinstituting peace through strength, revealing war criminal Putin lies, insulting Trump and mocking Trump, as Putin destroys Ukrainian civilian utilities to freeze Ukrainians, murderously deprived of electricity, heat, and water with temperatures below zero. ____________________
