On July 21, 2026, the House of Representatives voted on the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, which is backed by Speaker Mike Johnson and President Donald Trump. The vote, which largely followed party lines, allows for debate on a budget bill that includes funding for voter ID laws and proof-of-citizenship requirements in voter registration. The SAVE America Act has faced challenges in the Senate, where it requires Democratic support to overcome a filibuster. The reconciliation process allows the majority party to pass fiscal policy reforms with a simple majority, but the legislation must adhere to strict guidelines regarding federal spending and revenues. The budget bill also allocates funds for military efforts and agricultural aid. A framework for the budget bill is expected to be voted on by the House soon, although its passage remains uncertain due to opposition from both Democrats and some Republicans concerned about spending increases.
