Trump allies plan Senate floor action to pass SAVE America Act voting legislation

Trump allies are planning to take over the Senate floor to pass the SAVE America Act, a national voter ID law that passed the House with unanimous Republican support in February. Senate Majority Leader John Thune faces pressure from Trump and the MAGA base over his reluctance to weaken the Senate filibuster to pass the legislation. Trump has announced he won't sign any bills except Department of Homeland Security funding until the Senate sends him the SAVE America Act.
