“President Trump has demanded that the GOP-controlled Senate quickly pass strict new voting rules ahead of the midterms, setting the stage for a theatrical showdown on the floor this week that could stretch through several days and nights,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Trump, joined by influencers, activists and some Republicans in Congress, has been pressuring Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R., S.D.) to pass the SAVE America Act, which already has passed the House. Democrats vow to block the measure, so Thune plans to open the floor to an unusual drawn-out debate that will thrust the contentious legislation into the spotlight—but is unlikely to send it to Trump’s desk.”
