The Senate will hold a do-or-die test vote on President Donald Trump’s SAVE America Act that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in U.S. elections on Tuesday. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Republicans need a simple 51-vote majority to launch further proceedings.
The Senate on Tuesday voted to open debate on the SAVE America Act in a narrow 51-48 vote, marking an early step forward for the GOP-backed election bill as Democrats remain united in opposition.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, was the lone Republican to vote against advancing the legislation, while all Democrats opposed opening debate. Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., did not vote.
