SAVE America Act Stalls in Senate | Charleston News
Description
The SAVE America Act, a sweeping voting overhaul pushing for photo ID, citizenship proof, and federal data-sharing with Homeland Security, is hitting major roadblocks in the Senate. With no Democratic support likely to reach the 60-vote threshold, the bill’s future looks dim — even as the Trump administration cites alarming claims of 278,000 noncitizens on voter rolls. But election officials in states like Nevada dispute those numbers, and Homeland Security is still reviewing records. Senator Thom Tillis, retiring, bluntly called the bill “fundamentally flawed” and “impossible to enact” before Election Day. While the full act stalls, lawmakers are now discussing state-level grants — a watered-down alternative that won’t cover the original proposal’s core demands.
