The SAVE America Act, as described by the White House, Congress.gov bill text, Rep. Roy's release, NBC, and CNN, requires photo voter ID to vote in federal elections, so the claim that the bill contains voter ID provisions is accurate.

The guest relays this claim without endorsing it. It counts as passed on, not against the post.

This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

What we found

Supports. The Congress.gov text of S.3752 (SAVE America Act) states the bill requires individuals to provide photo identification to vote in federal elections.[3]

Supports. Rep. Chip Roy's press release says the SAVE America Act adds a voter ID requirement for voting in federal elections, requiring an eligible photo identification document before voting.[4]

Supports. NBC News and CNN both report that the bill would require photo identification to vote in federal elections, with CNN listing acceptable forms of ID.[5][6]

Context. FactCheck.org notes the bill's ID rules would be stricter than those in most of the 36 states with voter ID, and that the bill was not yet law, having stalled in the Senate.[1][2]
