If there’s one issue American voters have been crystal clear about over the past few years, it’s election integrity. Ironically, it’s about the only thing we can all agree on.
Republican voters have been pounding the table for it. These fed-up voters show up at town halls, call their senators, send emails by the thousands, and call out elected officials online… Americans want fair elections. And speaking of that, when election season rolls around, these same people get out and vote like their country depends on it.
Because to them, it does. But apparently the GOP Senate doesn’t feel the same way.
And that’s why the SAVE Act has become such a fiery hot debate. If the American people didn’t detest Congress before, they sure as heck do now, because the bill is stuck in the Senate, with nowhere to go, and GOP leadership refuses to end the Filibuster to push it through. The idea behind the bill is simple. Secure the vote and make sure only American citizens are casting ballots in American elections.
That’s it. Logical, right?
Well, not according to the GOP leadership.
But public support for it is through the roof. Poll after poll shows overwhelming backing for the concept. One recent Harvard poll found 71 percent of Americans support it. Among Republicans, the support is even higher.
