June 2026: TRUMP PRESIDENCY Four Senate Republicans Join Dems To Kill SAVE Act

Four Senate Republicans Join Dems To Kill SAVE Act
"Four Republican Senators joined all Democrats to vote against including the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act into a budget reconciliation package focused on immigration enforcement funding.
The amendment, this time advanced by Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), sought to attach elements like proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration, photo ID requirements, and related election security measures to a nearly $70 billion reconciliation bill aimed at funding ICE and Border Patrol. The effort failed as it required 60 votes to overcome procedural hurdles, falling short amid unified Democratic opposition.
The four dissenting Republican senators were Thom Tillis (R-NC), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Susan Collins (R-ME) and Mitch McConnell (R-KY)."
