Save America Act Faces Uncertain Path In Senate

Election-year legislation that would require proof of citizenship to register to vote appears stalled in the Senate, despite President Donald Trump urging lawmakers to pass it “before anything else” in his State of the Union address. The bill, known as the SAVE America Act, has strong support from House conservatives but faces Democratic opposition and divisions among Republicans in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader John Thune says the GOP is still discussing how to move forward.
