Luna: This Is How We Make the SAVE Act Law

The Daily Signal - Fri, 02/06/2026 - 11:20

Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna wants the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship and photo identification for voters in federal elections, to become law. For that to happen, she says it might have to be attached to a “must-pass” foreign intelligence bill.

“The Senate has now sat on this for over 300 days,” Luna, R-Fla., told Punchbowl News in an interview published Friday. “Something that… many members of Congress are tired of is ‘messaging bills’… It doesn’t actually feel like we’re doing much of anything.”

“Messaging bills,” are pieces of legislation with little possibility of becoming law that members support to amplify their political messaging.

Next week, the House will vote on the SAVE America Act. A previous version of the bill, the SAVE Act, passed by a 220-208 vote in April 2025.

The new bill, if signed into law, would enforce a national requirement of photo identification in order to vote in federal elections, in addition to requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration.

It would also, as in the original SAVE Act, require states to clear voter rolls of individuals who cannot prove their citizenship, for federal elections.

But Luna said that, in order to pressure Congress to approve it, Republicans may have to insert the bill into another bill reauthorizing part of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).

On April 20, the federal government’s authority to conduct warrantless surveillance on non-citizens will sunset and require renewal from Congress.

“I do believe that the only way voter ID is going to pass is if it is attached to a must-pass piece of legislation. I think that that’s going to be FISA,” said Luna, who noted her previous opposition to FISA.

Asked if she believed Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., agreed, Luna replied, “I think the speaker is with me on this understanding that… we’re going to do it on a stand-alone and hope the Senate does the right thing, but that it’s likely going to have to go in FISA.”

Johnson’s office did not immediately respond to a request from The Daily Signal to confirm or deny Luna’s description of his views.

Luna has also recently called for Senate Republicans to overcome the typical 60-vote threshold for debate to end a bill, the filibuster, by forcing Democrats to speak continuously to stall passage of the SAVE Act, a procedural move known as the “talking filibuster.”

Luna added in the interview, “I don’t speak for the speaker, but that’s based on my conversations.”

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., a supporter of the SAVE Act, recently told The Daily Signal that he believes Republicans must place it in must-pass legislation in order for it to become law.

“If we want any leverage, I think we should attach voter ID … If not the whole SAVE Act, some subset of the SAVE Act should be put into every appropriations bill,” Massie told The Daily Signal on Wednesday.

 “If we’re going to have a fight over a shutdown, make it over whether we have secure elections or not.”

When Should Businesses Accelerate Expenses and Defer Income?

The Daily Caller - Fri, 02/06/2026 - 11:16
Smart timing can make a real difference in a business’s tax bill and cash flow. Two common moves are accelerating expenses (paying or booking deductible costs sooner) and deferring income (pushing revenue recognition into a later period). Used wisely, these tactics can lower taxable income in the current year, improve short-term liquidity, and help you […]

WY: Support Pro-Second Amendment Bills in the Wyoming Legislature

Gun Owners of America - Fri, 02/06/2026 - 11:05


 

Please Contact Wyoming Legislators Today to Support Pro-Second Amendment Bills

Click here to contact your legislators.

Over the prior four Wyoming Legislative Sessions, GOA has worked with strong Second Amendment supporters to pass some of America’s best Second Amendment legislation.

Because of these efforts, Wyoming now has the Nation’s strongest criminal Second Amendment Protection Act to reduce local cooperation with federal gun control, and Wyoming has strong laws that stop local governments from having gun control.

Furthermore, after passing the bill two straight years (it was vetoed by the Governor in 2024), in 2025, Wyoming successfully repealed most “Gun-Free” zones in critical places like government buildings and schools.

Wyoming now stands among America’s top states when it comes to Second Amendment Rights, but there’s still room to improve.

This year, Gun Owners of America has teamed up with pro-Second Amendment Legislators to bring at least 5 important bills that will strengthen and/or enhance the important work we have already accomplished.

This includes bills to enhance the Second Amendment Protection Act, protect financial privacy for people purchasing firearms and ammunition, lower the required age to 18 for concealed carry permits, and enhance protections for citizens who regrettably are forced to use self-defense under Wyoming’s Stand Your Ground Law.

The Wyoming Legislature convenes on February 9, so we will be providing more information about these bills in the coming days and weeks.

For now, please click on the attached links and ask your Representative and Senator to support these common sense measures.

Together, we can make Wyoming America’s #1 state for Second Amendment Rights if we pass GOA’s 2026 Wyoming Legislative Agenda.

Stay tuned for more information very soon.

P.S. Please be sure to contact your Legislators and encourage them to support GOA-backed, pro-Second Amendment bills this Legislative Session.

Is the American Medical Association Really Changing Course on Transgender Surgery for Minors?

The Daily Signal - Fri, 02/06/2026 - 10:51

After the world’s largest organization of plastic surgeons recommended delaying “transgender” surgery until a patient reaches the age of 19, the American Medical Association stated it would follow that guidance—but added a key word that set off alarm bells for one medical watchdog group.

The AMA, America’s most influential doctor association, has long advocated against laws to restrict experimental transgender interventions euphemistically described as “gender-affirming care.” This activism may complicate any attempt to shift from previous support for these interventions.

“It is no surprise the AMA chooses to leave itself wiggle room, given its record of opposing government protections for minors from harmful transgender procedures,” Dr. Kurt Miceli, a board-certified physician in psychiatry and internal medicine who serves as chief medical officer at Do No Harm, told The Daily Signal on Thursday.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons, citing a peer-reviewed study from the Department of Health and Human Services, concluded that “there is insufficient evidence demonstrating a favorable risk-benefit ratio for the pathway of gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions in children and adolescents.”

“ASPS recommends that surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old,” the society added.

AMA’s Position

The American Medical Association told National Review that it agrees with ASPS, but critics say it misstated the society’s position.

“Our colleagues at ASPS concluded that the evidence supporting gender-related surgery in minors is insufficient and of low certainty,” the AMA said in the statement, also provided to The Daily Signal. “The American Medical Association respects the expertise and dedication of surgeons who care for patients every day.”

“The AMA supports evidence-based treatment, including gender-affirming care,” the statement added. “Currently, the evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to make a definitive statement. In the absence of clear evidence, the AMA agrees with ASPS that surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”

Misleading?

Do No Harm’s Miceli criticized the American Medical Association’s statement. He noted that its recommendation that surgical interventions “generally” be deferred to adulthood differed from the ASPS’s recommendation, which left no room for exceptions. 

“The American Medical Association statement is purposefully vague and misstates ASPS’s clear rejection of all sex-change surgeries for minors,” the doctor told The Daily Signal.

“The AMA also fails to address the insufficient evidence supporting endocrine interventions, unlike ASPS,” he added. “Waffling on a question this central to the safety and wellbeing of American children is unacceptable. The AMA must clarify its position and should definitively reject all sex-change procedures for minors.”

The American Medical Association’s History

After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (2022), the association launched the “Task Force to Preserve the Patient-Physician Relationship When Evidence-Based, Appropriate Care Is Banned or Restricted.”

The task force focuses on abortion but also anticipated a strategy to prevent or mitigate “bans on other appropriate health care, such as gender affirming care.” The task force also includes an ad hoc committee focusing on addressing “barriers” to transgender medical interventions.

The Daily Signal reached out to the organizations in the task force, including the Endocrine Society, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the other members, asking if they would comment on the ASPS position and whether it would alter their advocacy with the task force. Most did not respond, though a few did.

The Texas Medical Association told The Daily Signal that it “supports Texas physicians following Texas law in this matter.”

Dr. Eric Wargotz, a pathologist and president of the Maryland State Medical Society, told The Daily Signal that his organization will follow the ASPS recommendation.

“The Maryland State Medical Society’s position, generally, is we refer to the society and support their positions,” he said. “We feel they know the science better than we, as a general medical society, so we tend to follow their lead.”

The American Society for Reproductive Medicine referred The Daily Signal to its 2021 ethics statement that patients who identify as transgender should receive access to fertility services.

The American Academy of Pediatrics, by contrast, told U.S. News & World Report that its position had not changed.

“The guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) for health care for young people with gender dysphoria does not include a blanket recommendation for surgery for minors,” Dr. Andrew Racine, the AAP’s president, said. “The AAP continues to hold to the principle that patients, their families and their physicians — not politicians — should be the ones to make decisions together about what care is best for them.”

HHS Weighs In

The Department of Health and Human Services declined to comment directly on the AMA’s position, but a spokesperson told The Daily Signal that “HHS continues to fight to protect America’s children from irreversible harm outlined in the Department’s peer-reviewed report.”

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. praised the ASPS for its new position.

“We commend the American Society of Plastic Surgeons for standing up to the overmedicalization lobby and defending sound science,” Kennedy said in a statement Tuesday. “By taking this stand, they are helping protect future generations of American children from irreversible harm.”
