Media Miss by the left: Trump says he won’t sign any bills until SAVE Act passes
President Donald Trump says he will not sign any bills into law until Congress passes the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, which would require proof of citizenship and a photo ID to vote.
The House passed the SAVE America Act last month, but it has not yet cleared the Senate. Trump is urging Republicans to bypass a Democratic filibuster to get the bill to his desk.
