Trump hits back at Republican Senate majority leader over Save America act

AI Summary

long article 4 min

Donald Trump is pressuring Senate Majority Leader John Thune to alter Senate rules to force a vote on the Save America Act, an election-focused bill. Trump insists he won't sign other legislation until the bill reaches his desk, despite the Senate lacking the 60 votes needed to overcome the filibuster. Thune acknowledges the bill will likely fail in the Senate due to insufficient support for both a vote and a "talking filibuster." Trump wants to add provisions to the bill, including bans on mail voting and gender-affirming care, which further complicates its passage as some Republicans disagree with these additions. Thune plans to bring the bill to a vote, but admits he cannot guarantee its passage.
