Republicans claim the SAVE America Act would make it harder for noncitizens to vote. That’s a lie.
They might as well call it the “Stop Citizens from Voting Act.”
This bill is all about stopping some American citizens who Trump doesn’t want to vote from casting their ballot.

I commend the women who came forward to bravely tell their stories and recount decades of pain. Powerful men, no matter who they are, must be held accountable for abuse, grooming, and rape.
Republicans say their bill is about keeping noncitizens from voting. That’s a lie! The Republican bill is about stopping CITIZENS from voting—married women, students, Tribal communities. It’s just plain wrong.
Democrats just offered a bill to make sure TSA agents get their paychecks. AGAIN.
Republicans blocked it. AGAIN.
Republicans need to get serious about paying critical federal workers.
Trump said he’d end wars and lower costs but he’s starting wars and raising costs.
His chaotic tariffs are taking money out of YOUR pocket as he wages an illegal war with Iran that is costing taxpayers more than $1 billion EVERY DAY.
We need justice for Epstein’s victims and real accountability for abusers.
A group of senators is calling for an independent audit over the Department of Justice’s handling of the Epstein files.

Trump’s war of choice with Iran has already cost taxpayers MORE THAN $11 BILLION as prices for everything from groceries to gas skyrocket.
Pure authoritarian government: using licenses to silence the press. We must stop Trumpism. Let's save our Republic!
Around the world, we’re seeing powerful men being held accountable because of the Epstein Files—a prince, a former prime minister.
We need to follow suit here in America. No one is above the law, including the President.

Trump’s illegal war with Iran has no clear objective and no exit plan.
He’s raising costs on families, shredding the Constitution, and risking our national security—and there’s no plan.
Pete Hegseth wasted $93 BILLION in one MONTH. It’s indefensible—a $98,000 piano, $12,000 for fruit basket stands, and the list goes on and on (and on).
Just another reason why Hegseth has got to go. newrepublic.com/post/207555/...
Trump and his oil-obsessed mega donors are hellbent on killing our planet to extract every last drop of oil—at the expense of our health and environment. With Trump it’s polluters over people, every single time. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/c...
