Senate begins debate on SAVE America Act requiring voter ID and proof of citizenship
The Senate voted 51-48 to begin debate on the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship when registering to vote and photo ID when voting. Democrats unanimously oppose the legislation and are expected to block its passage through filibuster. President Trump has made the bill his top legislative priority and threatened not to sign other bills until it passes.
