SAVE Act - short list of voter suppression implications. Take quick action: 5calls | resistbot

With a 53-47 majority, Senate Republicans would need Democratic support to overcome the 60-vote threshold to advance the bill to a final vote and ultimately send it to Trump to sign into law.

Ending debate and bringing a bill to a vote is called "cloture." This takes 60 votes in the Senate. Once the bill is brought to a vote, it only takes a simple majority to pass, which Republicans have. So refusing to bring the bill to a vote is our best shot.

If you live in the U.S, your state has two senators. Tell your senators to vote NO on cloture and NO on the SAVE Act. Even if they plan to vote no on the bill itself, a vote for cloture throws us under the bus and lets the SAVE Act pass.

A Louisiana resident who identified himself as Marshawn delivered a fiery, emotional speech to lawmakers during a state Senate hearing over redistricting Monday, accusing Republicans of trying to “cheat” Black voters out of political power.

“The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy,” he told lawmakers. “If y’all could give us less than zero seats, you would do it.”

Marshawn’s testimony came as Louisiana Republicans advance a new congressional map after the Supreme Court weakened key protections in the Voting Rights Act.

“There will be no more of your party,” he said. “The midterms gonna come, y’all gonna get wiped out,” he said.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Enthusiasm among Republican voters for President Donald Trump’s second term appears to be softening, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, with only about one in five Republicans saying they are enthusiastic about the next two years of his presidency.

The survey found that 19% of self-identified Republicans describe themselves as “enthusiastic” about the remainder of Trump’s term. A much larger share, 58%, said they remain “optimistic” about the administration’s future, while 13% reported feeling “pessimistic” and 11% said they are “afraid” about what lies ahead.

The findings suggest that while Trump continues to retain support from most Republican voters, the level of excitement within his political base has declined compared with earlier periods of his presidency. The poll comes as the White House faces growing public scrutiny over issues including the economy, inflation, and foreign policy challenges.

Among Americans overall, the outlook is considerably more negative. According to the poll, 67% of U.S. adults said they feel either afraid or pessimistic about the nation’s future under Trump’s leadership, highlighting a stark partisan divide in perceptions of the administration.

The survey also reflects broader challenges for the president as he approaches the second half of his term. Recent polling has shown Trump’s overall approval rating remaining below 40%, while concerns about economic conditions continue to weigh heavily on public opinion.
