WASHINGTON β The Republican-controlled House voted Wednesday to pass the SAVE America Act, a sweeping election bill that President Donald Trump is pushing Congress to enact.
The vote was 218-213, with Republicans unanimously voting in favor and all but one Democrat voting against it. The one Democrat voting yes was Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas.
The 32-page legislation would require states to obtain documentary proof-of-citizenship βin person,β such as an American passport or birth certificate, from someone in order to register them to vote in a federal election.
The bill, which was revised from an earlier version to include new demands from Trump, also requires voters to show photo identification in order to cast a ballot in person. And it slaps new rules for mail-in ballots, requiring voters to submit a copy of an eligible ID when requesting and casting an absentee ballot.

They are worried about losing their phony bologna jobs.
Time for the crooks to self-identify?
Even (non elected) Democrats support voter ID laws.
Anything in the bill to control the VOTE COUNTERS ?
This is all on Thune. He could arrange maneuvers in order for it to be voted if he so chose.
The U.S. is about to join the modern developed world by requiring proof of citizenship.
Time to leave the stone ages!
Ok now, on to the Senate!!!
Muttsie must have changed his vote https://x.com/Breaking911/status/2021674504607732047
Massie voted for it. I know his haters must be really angry now. After #MAGA spent all day attacking him for voting against it! Who does he think he is?
More then likely DOA in the Senate because of jackass Republican rino’s.
And it’s only the most important bill that’s been brought to the Senate in my entire lifetime.
Yes there is... Read it.
No bias in this article.

Which 4 Senators drew the short straw of having an “honest disagreement” with the President this time?
Let’s see which guys we don’t get a harumpf from.
The world is watching this decision. I know there are plenty of US polls on the issue but I’d really like to see a news article on what the popular opinion is about the US in, say...20 other industrialized countries. My guess is they are baffled why the most influential country in the world does not require voter ID.

Actual photo from the Senate this morning.
I heard on a podcast this morning that it was Collins, Murkowski, McConnell and Thune.
