Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is warning that a bipartisan appropriations package will be “dead on arrival” in the Senate, if it contains the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act.
Schumer announced yesterday that he’s willing to risk another government shutdown in order to block GOP attempts to add voter ID and citizenship eligibility requirements to the funding bill.
According to Schumer, “The SAVE Act would impose Jim Crow style restrictions on voting. It will be dead on arrival in the Senate.”
Senate Democrats and their Republican allies have no desire to safeguard elections.
This Congress is no better than any previous one. "America First," my lily-white butt.
