Pay attention to the reconciliation bill people. Keep up the pressure on your lawmakers. Republicans are now trying to insert a more narrower version of the SAVE Act into the bill to try and comply with reconciliation rules. Couple quotes from this Democracy Docket article

“Republicans introduced a new bill Thursday that could help revive pieces of the SAVE America Act — a sweeping voting restrictions package that has stalled in the Senate — by using a federal grant program to bypass a Democratic filibuster.”

“There is no current nationwide REAL ID requirement to vote in federal elections. The bill instead appears aimed at helping states move toward stricter ID systems while giving Republicans an answer to criticism that ID restrictions can disenfranchise low-income voters.”

“The proposal, however, has a significant problem.

REAL ID is not proof of citizenship for everyone who has one. Lawful permanent residents can also obtain REAL ID-compliant cards, but they cannot vote in federal elections. That means the bill could help build out stricter ID infrastructure without fully addressing the citizenship issue Republicans claim to be targeting.

The bill itself does not mandate that states require REAL ID cards at the polls. Instead, it would fund the machinery that could make those requirements easier to impose.

37% were shaving cream or other non-edible lying pies, 22% were poisoned, 11% were mediocre, but 4% were delicious.
