In the Senate, Democrats are in the minority but can stand in the way of the SAVE America Act. Republicans, despite pressure from President Donald Trump to pass the bill, don't appear likely to take advantage of the talking filibuster – even though some in their party are pushing to do so. #filibuster #saveamerica #republican #democrat

The SAVE America Act would require every voter to show proof of citizenship documentation when registering to vote in federal elections by presenting their passport or original birth certificate bearing their current legal name. This is a huge change to how we are used to registering to vote, and many eligible voters don’t have these documents readily available. In fact, over 21 million eligible citizens lack the restrictive, ready proof of citizenship required under this law, and 146 million Americans have no valid passport.
