Kennedy presses GOP to act on SAVE Act
In a Fox News interview, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) criticized Republicans for delaying the SAVE Act, which aims to expand federal oversight of election security. He rejected the idea of negotiating with Democrats, urging the use of reconciliation to advance the bill with only Republican votes.

"Some of my colleagues think that if we talk about the SAVE Act long enough, Democrats will give in. If you believe that, then you are proof that human evolution is a slow process! Your cocker spaniel knows better. Democrats are not going to vote for the SAVE Act. We are going to have to do it with Republican votes."
