Trump allies plan Senate floor takeover to pass SAVE America Act [View all]

President Trump’s allies are planning to take over the Senate floor this week in a bid to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE America) Act, setting up a major test for Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.), who is under pressure from Trump and the MAGA base to extend the debate over voting reform for as long as possible.

GOP senators are playing their cards close to the vest ahead of this week’s marathon debate over the SAVE America Act, which would require people registering to vote to show documented proof of citizenship.

Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), a leading proponent of the bill, says Trump wants to see Republicans go all out and is envisioning an epic floor fight, like the two-month battle that preceded the Senate’s passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Lee recalled that during the battle over the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Senate stayed in session for 60 days “and used an approach that is similar to what I think we ought to do here.”

Lee compares this with the 1964 Civil Rights Act? What a horse's ass.

Elsewhere this article claims 71% of register voters support the Save Act per a recent Harvard CAPS/Harris poll.

Looking at other results from said poll leaves me skeptical. For example, it says 50% of Democrats support the Save Act.

None-the-less I think more people need to know what the Save Act would really do.
