Senator Thom Tillis (NC) on Thursday went ballistic in a long-winded rant against the SAVE America Act from the Senate floor.
The House of Representatives on Wednesday passed the SAVE America Act as part of a National Security bill.
On Thursday the House Budget Committee advanced the SAVE and Protect America Act through the budget reconciliation process.
The House Budget Committee advanced a framework for a third reconciliation bill.
The reconciliation strategy is designed to allow the measure to pass the Senate with a simple majority rather than the traditional 60 votes required to overcome a filibuster, although Senate rules will ultimately determine which provisions qualify.
Tillis, a bitter Trump hater and RINO of all RINOs who announced he is not seeking reelection this year, vowed to block the bill as he went off on President Trump.
“If I see a reconciliation bill come from the House with another failed attempt to confuse this election, I will use every device I have available to slow down the wheels of government until people cop a clue and do the math,” Tillis said.
