The Contract to Save America

For Candidates & Members of Congress

Take the pledge: a dated, versioned commitment to specific legislative actions on all ten proposals in the first 100 days of the new congressional term (the 120th Congress, which begins January 3, 2027), counted from the day Congress convenes, not from the day you sign.

This is not Republican versus Democrat. The Contract welcomes every citizen and every officeholder, whether Republican, Democrat, independent, or any other party, who commits to these principles. We show members' parties for reference, but signing is open to all.

Citizen signature or congressional pledge? A citizen signature says you support the complete Contract, all ten proposals. It is counted in your district’s total. A congressional pledge is a formal, dated commitment by a Member of Congress or a candidate to take specific legislative actions on all ten proposals. Pledges are shown only after we verify them with the office.

The four pledge versions

Each version is fixed text with a published SHA-256 fingerprint, so anyone can check that the text a signer agreed to has not changed.

Pledge for sitting Members of the House of Representatives (house-2.1)
I, the undersigned Member of the House of Representatives, make this pledge to the people I represent, concerning the ten legislative proposals of the Contract to Save America, version 2.1 (November 4, 2026). Within the first 100 days of the new congressional term named in this pledge, counted from the day that Congress first convenes (not from the day I sign), I will personally: 1. Introduce or cosponsor House legislation carrying out each of the ten proposals. Where a proposal has already been introduced, I will cosponsor it. 2. Publicly request, in writing, that the committees of jurisdiction hold hearings on and mark up each measure. 3. Vote yes on each measure in any committee on which I serve, and on the House floor. 4. Sign any discharge petition under clause 2 of House Rule XV for these measures, and support any special rule or rules change needed to force a recorded floor vote on each. 5. Report publicly on my progress on each measure at least every 30 days during those 100 days, and at least quarterly after them. If I sign after that term has begun, I will complete each step not yet done as soon as possible; the 100 days are still counted from the start of the term. I understand that an individual Member of Congress cannot guarantee that a measure will be scheduled for a vote or that it will pass. This pledge covers the actions I personally take. For the proposed constitutional amendments, it covers my votes in Congress; ratification belongs to the States. I may withdraw or correct this pledge only by written public notice, which will be recorded with its date.

Within the first 100 days of the new congressional term named in this pledge, counted from the day that Congress first convenes (not from the day I sign), I will personally: 1.

Report publicly on my progress on each measure at least every 30 days during those 100 days, and at least quarterly after them. If I sign after that term has begun, I will complete each step not yet done as soon as possible; the 100 days are still counted from the start of the term. I understand that an individual Member of Congress cannot guarantee that a measure will be scheduled for a vote or that it will pass. This pledge covers the actions I personally take.

Pledge for candidates for the House or Senate (candidate-2.1)
I, the undersigned candidate for the United States House of Representatives or Senate, make this pledge to the voters, concerning the ten legislative proposals of the Contract to Save America, version 2.1 (November 4, 2026). Until the new term begins, I will state my support for the Contract publicly. If elected, within the first 100 days of the new congressional term to which I am elected, counted from the day that Congress first convenes, I will personally: 1. Introduce or cosponsor legislation in my chamber carrying out each of the ten proposals, or its companion measure. Where a measure has already been introduced, I will cosponsor it. 2. Publicly request, in writing, that the committees of jurisdiction hold hearings on and mark up each measure. 3. Vote yes on each measure in any committee on which I serve, and on the floor. 4.

Report publicly on my progress on each measure at least every 30 days during those 100 days, and at least quarterly after them. If I take office after that term has begun (for example, after a special election), I will complete each step not yet done as soon as possible; the 100 days are still counted from the start of the term. I understand that an individual Member of Congress cannot guarantee that a measure will be scheduled for a vote or that it will pass. This pledge covers the actions I personally take. For the proposed constitutional amendments, it covers my votes in Congress; ratification belongs to the States.

Pledge for Delegates and the Resident Commissioner (sitting or candidates) (delegate-2.1)
I, the undersigned Delegate to the House of Representatives (from the District of Columbia, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, or the Northern Mariana Islands) or Resident Commissioner from Puerto Rico, or candidate for one of those offices, make this pledge to the people I represent, concerning the ten legislative proposals of the Contract to Save America, version 2.1 (November 4, 2026). I understand that Delegates and the Resident Commissioner may introduce bills, serve and vote in committees, and speak on the floor, but may not vote on final passage of legislation in the House and may not sign a discharge petition. This pledge covers only the powers my office has. Within the first 100 days of the new congressional term named in this pledge (or, for a candidate, the term to which I am elected), counted from the day that Congress first convenes (not from the day I sign), I will personally: 1. Introduce or cosponsor House legislation carrying out each of the ten proposals. Where a proposal has already been introduced, I will cosponsor it. 2. Publicly request, in writing, that the committees of jurisdiction hold hearings on and mark up each measure. 3. Vote yes on each measure in any committee on which I serve. 4. Vote yes on each measure in the Committee of the Whole whenever the Rules of the House allow Delegates and the Resident Commissioner to vote there. 5. Advocate for each measure publicly and urge Members of the House to sign any discharge petition and support any special rule needed to force a recorded floor vote. 6. Report publicly on my progress on each measure at least every 30 days during those 100 days, and at least quarterly after them. If I sign after that term has begun, I will complete each step not yet done as soon as possible; the 100 days are still counted from the start of the term. A candidate who is elected makes the same commitments for the term to which they are elected, and states support for the Contract publicly until it begins. I understand that I cannot guarantee that a measure will be scheduled for a vote or that it will pass. This pledge covers the actions I personally take. For the proposed constitutional amendments, it covers my committee votes and advocacy; ratification belongs to the States. I may withdraw or correct this pledge only by written public notice, which will be recorded with its date.

Delegates and the Resident Commissioner cannot vote on final passage or sign a discharge petition, so their pledge covers bills, committee votes, Committee of the Whole votes where House rules allow, and advocacy. No single member can guarantee that a measure is scheduled for a vote or passes. The pledge covers what the signer personally does. Constitutional amendments also need ratification by three-fourths of the States.

How verification works

  1. A signed pledge is recorded as pending verification. Nothing is shown publicly.
  2. We look up the office’s contact details ourselves: house.gov or senate.gov for sitting members; the candidate’s FEC or state filing and official campaign site for candidates. We never rely only on the email or phone typed into the form.
  3. We contact the office through that independent channel and confirm the signer, the pledge version, the term, and the person who authorized the signature.
  4. An administrator records the method, the result, and the date. Every step is kept in an append-only history.
  5. Only then is the pledge shown as Verified, with its version and date. Corrections and withdrawals are added to the history, never erased.
