3 Clever Ways To Pass The SAVE America Act If Republicans Keep Stonewalling
By: Byron Fisher
May 05, 2026If Congress cannot quickly pass the SAVE America Act, policymakers should focus on what can be done now to advance its core provisions.As debate over election integrity continues in Washington, President Donald Trump has kept the SAVE America Act at the forefront, urging action for its passage in the Senate. At the same time, Democratic lawmakers have largely opposed measures requiring documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration and have raised concerns about the bill’s impact, with some critics labeling such proposals “Jim Crow 2.0.”
This divide makes one thing clear: if Congress cannot move quickly, policymakers should focus on what can be done now to advance its core provisions.
Senate Republicans should use every tool at their disposal to advance the SAVE America Act, including the talking filibuster, to force a broader debate on election integrity. At the same time, given the realities of Senate procedure and the need to build consensus, lawmakers should also pursue other avenues to move key provisions forward.
