Senate GOP plows forward on SAVE America Act amid pressure from right
The Senate is planning to debate and vote on the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, called the SAVE America Act, through this weekend as Senate conservatives warn that a failure to make significant progress on President Trumps No. 1 legislative priority could result in Republican voters sitting out the election in November.
The Senate is expected to vote Saturday on an amendment sponsored by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), a staunch Trump ally, to bar transgender athletes from participating in womens sports.
Then the Senate will pivot to vote Sunday on a motion to advance the nomination of Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) to serve as secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, which would set up a final confirmation vote for Mullin on Monday.
The Senate will then move back to debating the SAVE America Act, which conservatives want to keep on the floor for weeks longer.
