Trump's voting restrictions bill may fail, but parts live on in 23 states
Reuters analysis shows 23 mostly Republican-led states adopted voting changes that echo Trump’s package as the bill nears collapse in Congress.
- Twenty-Three mostly Republican-led states have recently changed voting procedures to mirror key aspects of President Trump's SAVE America Act, a Reuters analysis shows.
- While the federal SAVE America Act looks set to die in Congress, Senate Majority Leader John Thune discussed the stalled legislation during a Capitol Hill press conference in Washington.
- Many of these Republican-led states have implemented screening of registered voter lists and limited the types of photo identification accepted when casting a ballot.
- Voting rights advocates warn these copycat measures could disenfranchise citizens who lack certain identification, raising concerns about ballot access during this year's elections.
- These state-level changes will determine whether Trump's fellow Republicans retain control of Congress during this year's elections, shaping the party's legislative agenda.
