Trump’s Voter Suppression Act was never likely to pass in the first place, and Trump was possibly the only one who didn’t understand that.
…Trump’s probably going to go on a rant online in a few hours about this, isn’t he?

They’ll keep trying until it passes or they get voted out. November can’t come soon enough

Its really a sad comment on our times that our “victories” are at best temporary holding actions.
I think very soon the billionaire class is just going to outlaw voting oh not at first it will be subtle like it always is but the train will suddenly gain steam.

Thank you thank you thank you!

He’s just building ammunition for claiming the midterms are invalid.

It didn’t said it failed to vote, did more digging. So, it failed to advance due to Thune on not advancing it. It will still be advance once Thune gets a phone call from Trump.
It will pass. And America will be safer and stronger than ever, when voting is finally legitimate.

In the last 72 hours, Trump’s voter intimidation bill failed in part because of Senate Leader Thune, who is facing calls to resign by fellow Republican voices, the Iranians have demonstrated he lies anout their negotiations, the tariff refunds are coming out, and stories are coming out about him being sidelined from military meetings.
HE may think of himself as God, King, or whatever else he does, but he IS NOT.
The guy is a fucking loser.
He will lose his seat in the White House.
Impeach. Remove. Convict. Confine.

There will be no 2026 midterms, SAVE Act or otherwise.

FL has passed a state version, sadly.

Senate GOP knows this will affect them just as much as the Dems.

Thank goodness. One thing in favor of preserving the republic.

This is implying that they voted on it and it failed to pass.
There was never a vote because Thune realizes that it’s dead in the water and they’re not going to remove the filibuster.

The reason it has failed, I think, is that some of the Republicans realized that this would disenfranchise a significant portion of their own voters. The only way this bill would work in their favor would be if they could ensure that it is only enforced in areas that tend to vote Democrat.
Due to rightwing disinformation surrounding this bill, a lot of the MAGA people seem to think that the ID required is a drivers license, rather than a passport or birth certificate. They’re going to keep pushing for this bill because, they don’t understand that it might keep them from voting.
kaiiizen on
Fuck all of this administration’s deceptively named bad faith “ideas”. Although I do think that bill would have hurt MAGA a lot – not many of them have passports.

The double edged sword of the filibuster working in our favor for now

Well… This is probably bad news for Iran

This was the one where women who took their husbands last name would have to jump through hoops to vote still? I think it was aimed at trans people but, like with everything, didn’t think it through

Great, now to stop all the data harvesting bills out there under the guise of “age verification”

Pointless bill anyways.
Illegals can’t vote

“Millions of Voters Retain Their Right to Vote for Now” is something I never thought I would see. ‘for now’.

the SAVE Act is a last ditch effort to SAVE the GOP, lmao

Control of borh chambers and the White House, and they couldn’t even pass a bill to save themselves in the midterms. What clowns.

Best news so far this week.

When did this get voted on? Based on the available information I can find, there are no recorded roll call votes for the U.S. Senate today.

Holy shit, that is an incredible relief.

It’s the “… for now” that bothers me.
