Trump Pushes GOP on Voting Bill, Demanding an End to Most Mail Balloting
Trump demands passage of the SAVE America Act with strict voter ID and mail-in voting limits, threatening to block other bills until enacted before the midterm elections.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump threatened to withhold his signature on any other legislation until Congress passes the Republican-backed SAVE Act, pressing the demand at his Doral, Florida resort and on Truth Social.
- The SAVE Act would require proof of citizenship to register voters and push states to submit voter rolls to DHS, while a February 25-26 Harvard Harris Poll found 81% overall support for voter ID.
- With only 50 Republican backers, passing the bill in the U.S. Senate faces procedural obstacles as it requires at least 60 votes to defeat the filibuster, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune resists changing the rules.
- Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said Democrats would not support the bill and warned that if Trump refuses to sign other legislation, there would be total Senate gridlock, while 21.3 million American citizens lack ready access to citizenship documents.
- Facing a potential stalemate, Trump warned he may issue an executive order after a 2025 federal judge blocked parts of a similar order, with House leadership warning the ultimatum could hinder the reconciliation bill.
