Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R‑Alaska) publicly rejected the Trump‑backed SAVE America Act, calling a nationwide requirement that voters show proof of citizenship to register and government photo ID to vote “federal overreach.” (newsweek.com) The House passed the measure narrowly, 218–213, after proponents argued it protects election integrity; opponents warn it would disenfranchise millions and force states to scramble before upcoming elections.
