Schumer Slams SAVE Act as ‘Jim Crow 2.0’
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calls the SAVE America Act 'Jim Crow 2.0' and vows to block it, citing that over 20 million mainly poorer and minority voters would be disenfranchised.
- On Sunday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer vowed to block the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, calling it `Jim Crow 2.0` and claiming it would prevent over 20 million people from voting.
- Passed in the House, the SAVE America Act would require photo identification at polling places, proof of U.S. citizenship during registration, and allow federal monitoring of polling sites.
- Proponents of the SAVE Act cite an August 2025 Pew Research Center survey showing 83% support for voter ID, while Democratic critics including Schumer dismiss the polling as exclusionary.
- The House approved the measure 218-213 on Wednesday, and Senate procedures like the talking filibuster could block passage despite Representative Henry Cuellar's support.
- Debate has focused on whether ICE or federal agents should be at polling places, with Schumer calling ICE `these thugs` and Representative Jason Smith defending enforcement Thursday on CNBC.
