The House is set to vote next week on a once-obscure elections bill that has now become a household name among hard-right activists and a major rallying point for an otherwise divided GOP.
The SAVE America Act, aimed at tightening voter registration standards, has a difficult path to enactment despite a no-holds-barred pressure campaign from the likes of President Donald Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk. Democrats are certain to filibuster the bill in the Senate, and its unlikely the GOP is ready to take extraordinary steps to overcome that hurdle.
But amid growing fears that their party is not doing enough to address Americans key concerns rising prices chief among them House GOP leaders and key senators have chosen to put the election security push at the center of their agenda.

(1,343 posts)If we recall from the movie, 1864 election was a simple election... you just up election poll, make an X and get back in line with a new haircut... some may disqualify you just because they say your disqualified to vote.... sounds familiar????
I dont have a problem for rightful people to vote in ones elections.... just the defined "right people" is the key.....
Who are rightful people??? Law bidding adults.
Though, brainwashed individuals should be disqualified for they just follow orders and dont have a mind.
