Senate Begins Show Debate On SAVE America Act
By: M.D. Kittle
March 17, 2026 Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows says the alleged support by some Senate Republicans is ‘disingenuous at best.’The bill aimed at saving America from rigged elections finally goes to the Senate floor on Tuesday, but its fate appears doomed before it gets there.
While Senate Republican leaders say the process will allow plenty of time for talking, the “talking filibuster” is dead on arrival — and so ultimately is the SAVE America Act. A former congressman and White House Chief of Staff told The Federalist that the alleged support by some Senate Republicans is “disingenuous at best.”
A Capitol Hill source familiar with the floor plan told The Federalist that on Tuesday afternoon the Senate will proceed with a motion on the House-passed Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act. Because it was sent over as a message from the House the bill is considered a priority, which allows debate on the bill to begin with a simple majority vote.
That’s where simple ends.
