We now have a 4th version of the voting bill, S1383 - Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025 with a short title of “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act” or the “SAVE America Act” that generated a vote on March 17, 2026 as to whether or not to proceed with consideration of this bill. The vote passed with a simple majority of 51 Yeas (51 Republicans) to 48 Nays (45 Democrats, 2 Independents, and 1 Republican) with 1 Republican Not Voting. Now begins the debate on the content of this bill.
One reason I have been unable to find this bill is because it is titled Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025. The original S1383 was amended to strike out the entire text and insert the following:
Section 1 states the act may be cited as Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act or the SAVE America Act.
Section 2 details how to ensure only citizens are registered to vote in elections for FEDERAL office. This section defines what constitutes proof of US citizenship; restricts states from processing applications without proof of US citizenship (including in those states where voter registration is included with a motor vehicle driver's license); requires presentation of documentary proof of US citizenship in person at the voter registrar's office as well as at polling locations; mail in ballots also require documentary proof of US citizenship (with appropriate accommodations for individuals with disabilities). This section ensures only US citizens are registered to vote by requiring States to ensure those who register provide appropriate documentary proof of US Citizenship to vote in FEDERAL elections. It also provides a process for those without documentary proof (an affidavit requirement) as well as establishes a process in case of documentation discrepancies. Once the bill passes, States have 30 days to submit a list of individuals registered to vote to DHS for comparison to the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) system to identify those who need to be removed from the State voting rolls (a fee may be charged to the State). States shall remove non-US-citizens from their voting rolls.
Section 3 requires voters to provide photo identification (acceptable photo identification is described in part (c)) when voting. Photocopies of the photo identification must be submitted at each step in the mail-in ballot process (States must provide the tech for individuals to make copies of their photo identification).
I see absolutely no legitimate reason why this stripped down bill should not pass the Senate and be sent to President Trump for signature to become law. However, we all know Democrats have a million or so illegitimate reasons to oppose this bill to include everything from "women are too stupid to figure out how to change their name legally upon marriage or divorce" to "if you live here you should be able to vote here" and everything in between. And they know we are watching.
The First Lady and I send our best wishes to every American celebrating Eid al-Fitr. Eid al-Fitr, also known as the Festival of Breaking the Fast, unites Muslim families, friends, and communities in honor of their spiritual devotion at the conclusion of Ramadan. It also serves as a reminder of the foundational American principle of religious liberty, which my Administration is fighting for every day. We offer our warmest greetings for a blessed Eid al-Fitr to all who celebrate.
On March 1, 1781, the Articles of Confederation went into effect. The Articles were an agreement between the 13 Colonies and served as the frame of government during the American Revolution. The Articles of Confederation were discussed in my 6-part ANP mini series between September 18, 2025 and September 24, 2025. Part 1 discusses the Intro to Article IV, Part 2 discusses Articles V to VI, Part 3 discusses articles VII to VIII, Part 4 discusses Article IX, Part 5 discusses Articles X to XIII, and Part 6 discusses "who signed."
One representative from each Colony was appointed to prepare a draft of a constitution for the Union. The following people served on the committee:
John Dickinson (Pennsylvania, chairman of the committee) (today's Patriot below)
This committee submitted their work to Congress on July 12, 1776. The final draft was completed November 15, 1777 followed by being sent to the Colonies for individual ratification with the final Colony ratifying the Articles on February 2, 1781. The Colonies are presented in the order in which they ratified the Articles:
Virginia - December 16, 1777
South Carolina - February 5, 1778
New York - February 6, 1778
Rhode Island - February 9, 1778
Connecticut - February 12, 1778
Georgia - February 26, 1778
New Hampshire - March 4, 1778
Pennsylvania - March 5, 1778
Massachusetts - March 10, 1778
North Carolina - April 5, 1778
New Jersey - November 19, 1778
Delaware - February 1, 1779
Maryland - February 2, 1781
The Articles of Confederation governed the burgeoning Union until 1789 when the US Constitution and Bill of Rights were ratified.
John was home schooled. In 1750, at age 18, John studied law under John Moland in Philadelphia. In 1753, John sailed to England entering Middle Temple (part of the Inns of Court) to further his study of law. While there, he was able to make social connections that would last his lifetime. In 1757 he was admitted to the Pennsylvania bar.
John began his political career in 1767/1768 by publishing Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania in the Pennsylvania Chronicle. These letters were reprinted by others with his writing becoming one of the most influential American political documents before the Revolution. All 12 of these letters are available online at Project Gutenberg ebook 47111.
John married Mary "Polly" Norris (1740-1803) on July 19, 1770 in Philadelphia. They had 5 children of whom only 2 survived to adulthood.
In 1774, John was a delegate from Pennsylvania to the 1st Continental Congress continuing to serve in the 2nd Continental Congress from 1775 to 1776 as well. He was the author of the Olive Branch Petition (available from AmericaInClass.org as a pdf) which King George III never read.
John was one of 2 members of the 1st Continental Congress who served in the Revolutionary War. He held the rank of Brigadier General, leading 10,000 soldiers to Elizabeth New Jersey. He resigned his commission in December 1776.
John served as committee chairman for the Articles of Confederation which were ratified March 1, 1781 (see above). He became 5th President of Delaware from 1781 to 1783. He was 5th President of Pennsylvania from 1782 to 1785. He was a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1787. John did not sign the Constitution, George Read signed for him.
John's health began to decline in 1793, so he resigned his political ambitions; but, not entirely. He continued to work for the abolition movement. In 1801, he published 2 volumes of his collected works on politics (available online from the Internet Archive). John earned the nickname The Penman of the Revolution because of his writing. In 1804, John's childhood home burned down. He had it rebuilt because "This place affords a luxuriant prospect of plenty."
John died February 14, 1808 at age 75 in Wilmington, Delaware. He is interred at the Friends Burial Ground in Wilmington, Delaware.
Those are some of the exact words used by Google’s censors, aka 'Orwellian content police,' in describing many of our controversial stories. Stories later proven to be truthful and light years ahead of the mainstream media. But because we reported those 'inconvenient truths' they're trying to bankrupt ANP.
