Lee Pushes Senate Stay to Pass SAVE Act | Portland Maine News
Description
Senator Mike Lee is rallying Senate Republicans to keep the chamber in session through August to push the SAVE America Act, a controversial bill tied to voting restrictions favored by President Trump. Lee’s strategy involves forcing Democrats into a “talking filibuster,” hoping their endless floor speeches will wear them down — a bold, tradition-based gambit he insists won’t fail. But Majority Leader John Thune is skeptical, demanding clarity on the plan’s endgame. With internal GOP debate heating up, the Senate faces a pivotal choice: stay and fight or let the August recess proceed — and the outcome remains uncertain.
