President Trump Urges Congress to Pass the SAVE Act
President Donald Trump said that his Wednesday luncheon with senators will focus on ways to pass the SAVE America Act.
POSSIBLE TAG: Sen. Scott said the Senate needs to stay in session to pass the package as quickly as possible.
VERBATIM: Speaking with reporters, President Trump said, “We have to pass the SAVE America Act, which is voter ID, which is proof of citizenship, etc.”
Mr. Trump is attending the closed-door Senate luncheon at the invitation of Florida Republican Sen. Rick Scott.
The SAVE America Act would mandate photo identification and proof of citizenship in federal elections, terminate vote-by-mail, and require local governments to regularly purge their voter rolls. It would also ban men from women’s sports and prohibit transgender procedures for children.
