No source states how many states ACT for America has chapters in, so the 48-state figure can be neither confirmed nor refuted. The sources give chapter counts that conflict with each other and with the claim's scope, and the claimant's own passage cannot corroborate it; the extracted claim matches the passage's 48-state figure, and the 95%-of-counties figure was dropped.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

Context. Sources give chapter totals rather than state coverage: Wikipedia cites 890 chapters (2015) and Islamophobia.org and MuckRock cite about 1,000 chapters, while VOA reports the group had 'just eight' chapters on SPLC's most recent list and that dozens of chapters closed, with many becoming 'digital chapters'.[2][3][4]
Context. A Middle East Forum article states ACT had nine chapters in Tennessee, a state-level detail that shows the group's geographic footprint is documented in some cases but not for the national 48-state count.[5]
Context. Snopes reports the group claims 525,000 members and 1,000 volunteer groups across the U.S., but does not break these down by state.[1]
Context. The claim's figure of 48 states appears only in the claimant's own passage, which is not evidence; the sources do not corroborate it, and the 2026-10-05 date is not addressed by any source describing state-level coverage.
