Washington — 众议院定于周三就《SAVE美国法案》进行投票，该法案将对选民登记和投票设置严格的新要求。民主党人警告称，这些举措将剥夺数百万符合条件选民的投票权。
《SAVE美国法案》要求在联邦选举中登记投票时必须提供公民身份证明文件，如护照或出生证明。同时，该法案还将实施投票时的照片身份证要求，这也是共和党人的另一项优先事项。该法案是众议院共和党人多年来试图在参众两院通过的一项措施的最新版本。
共和党人称赞该法案是防止非公民投票的合理方式，尽管非公民投票的案例极为罕见。
“这项常识性立法只是为了确保美国公民决定美国的选举——其实就是这么简单，”路易斯安那州共和党众议长迈克·约翰逊周二表示。

约翰逊援引民调称，民众对登记投票时出示公民身份证明和投票时出示照片身份证的支持率很高。2024年10月盖洛普的一项民调显示，83%的美国人支持首次登记投票时提供公民身份证明的政策。而去年8月皮尤研究中心的一项民调显示，83%的美国人支持要求选民出示政府签发的照片身份证才能投票。
但民主党人和一些专家认为，该法案将对数千万无法提供公民身份证明文件的美国人产生影响。
“如果你是50%没有护照的美国人之一，或者你是数千万无法快速获得出生证明的美国人之一，《SAVE法案》实际上可能会剥夺你的投票权，”纽约州民主党参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默周一在参议院发表讲话时称该法案“极端”。
特朗普总统呼吁共和党人支持该立法，称如果不通过，“我们将不再拥有一个国家”。特朗普表示，所有选民必须出示身份证明和公民身份证明至关重要。但他进一步要求终止邮寄选票，除非有例外情况。
约翰逊对该法案在众议院的通过表示有信心。
“尽管民主党人的反对激烈、前后矛盾且坦率地说荒谬可笑，共和党人将继续与绝大多数希望选举安全的美国人站在一起，”约翰逊表示，“我们将做正确的事，做常识性的事，并通过这项法案。”
众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯周一批评该立法，指责共和党人将“压制选民作为选举策略”。
“所谓的《SAVE法案》就是这个意思，”他说，“而这一版本比上一版本更糟糕。”
这位纽约州民主党人坚称“它不会通过”，并补充说，如果它“勉强通过众议院，那么在参议院就会胎死腹中”。
该法案的早期版本曾两次在众议院通过，得到少数民主党人的支持。但参议院通过大多数立法所需的60票门槛使得上议院通过该法案的可能性不大，共和党领袖尚未着手处理该法案。
南达科他州共和党参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（John Thune）近几周面临巨大压力，要求推进该法案。该法案的支持者呼吁他使用所谓的“冗长辩论”（talking filibuster）策略来规避结束辩论所需的60票门槛，但这样做会占用宝贵的辩论时间，并使民主党人能够提出无限数量的修正案。
多位参议员表示，参议院共和党人周二在闭门午餐会上讨论了推进该立法的方案。犹他州共和党议员迈克·李（Mike Lee）在参议院推动“冗长辩论”，他表示，关于该策略的介绍反响良好。
南达科他州共和党议员迈克·鲁兹（Mike Rounds）告诉记者“讨论很有成效”，但他称“冗长辩论”“非常不可行”。
“尽管如此，这仍是一些人感兴趣的事情之一，”鲁兹说，“我们将继续对此进行更多研究。事实上，我很希望能看到《SAVE美国法案》能够提交投票，并让我们的民主党同僚就这个问题投票。”
为达到60票门槛，参议院共和党人至少需要7名民主党人的支持。而阿拉斯加州共和党议员莉萨·穆尔科斯基（Lisa Murkowski）已经公开表示反对，理由是距离中期选举太近，实施新的联邦选举要求会带来问题。
“选举日临近，各州正深入进行筹备工作，此时出台新的联邦要求，将迫使选举官员为遵守可能缺乏必要资源的新政策而仓促应对，这将对选举完整性产生负面影响，”穆尔科斯基周二在X平台（原推特）上表示，“确保公众对选举的信任是我们民主的核心，但联邦越权并不是实现这一目标的途径。”
图恩周二表示，参议院共和党人正在就该立法的前进道路进行“非常深入的讨论”。
“我们如何走到投票这一步还有待观察，”图恩补充道。

House to vote on the SAVE America Act as GOP makes election bill push
February 11, 2026 / 7:52 AM EST / CBS News
Washington — The House is set to vote Wednesday on the SAVE America Act, which would implement strict new requirements for registering to vote and casting ballots, moves that Democrats have warned would disenfranchise millions of eligible voters.
The SAVE America Act would require documentation that shows proof of citizenship, like a passport or a birth certificate, to register to vote in federal elections. It would also implement photo ID requirements for voting itself, another GOP priority. The bill is the latest iteration of a measure House Republicans have sought to pass through both chambers for several years.
Republicans have lauded the measure as a reasonable way to prevent noncitizens from casting ballots, though instances of noncitizens voting are exceedingly rare.
“Common-sense legislation to just ensure that American citizens decide American elections — it really is that simple,” House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, said Tuesday.

Johnson pointed to polling that shows high levels of support for showing proof of citizenship and photo ID to vote. An October 2024 poll from Gallup found that 83% of Americans back a policy to require people who are registering to vote for the first time to provide proof of citizenship. And a poll from the Pew Research Center published last August found 83% of Americans favor requiring voters to show government-issued photo ID to vote.
But Democrats and some experts have argued that the bill would have implications for millions of Americans who don’t have access to documents proving their citizenship.
“If you’re one of the 50% of Americans who doesn’t have a passport, or if you’re one of the tens of millions of Americans who can’t quickly access your birth certificate, the SAVE Act could, in effect, take away your right to vote,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, said on the Senate floor Monday, calling the legislation “extreme.”
President Trump has called on Republicans to support the legislation, saying “we won’t have a country any longer” if it’s not enacted. Mr. Trump has said it’s essential that all voters show identification and proof of citizenship. But he’s also gone a step further and demanded an end to mail-in ballots, with some exceptions.
Johnson has expressed confidence in the legislation’s passage in the House.
“Despite the vehement and incoherent and frankly ridiculous opposition from Democrats, Republicans will continue to stand with the overwhelming majority of Americans who want secure elections,” Johnson said. “We’re going to do the right thing, we’re going to do the common-sense thing, and we’re going to pass this.”
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries criticized the legislation Monday and accused Republicans of adopting “voter suppression as an electoral strategy.”
“That’s what the so-called SAVE Act is all about,” he said. “And this version is worse than the last version.”
The New York Democrat insisted that “it’s not going to pass,” adding that if it “squeaks by the House, it’s dead on arrival in the Senate.”
Earlier versions of the bill have passed the House twice, with support from a handful of Democrats. But a 60-vote threshold for advancing most legislation in the Senate makes passage in the upper chamber unlikely, and GOP leaders have yet to take up the measure.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, a South Dakota Republican, has faced intense pressure in recent weeks to move forward with the bill. The legislation’s proponents have called on him to use a maneuver known as a talking filibuster to sidestep the 60-vote threshold for ending debate, but doing so would eat up valuable floor time and enable Democrats to offer unlimited amendments.
Senate Republicans discussed how to move forward with the legislation at their conference lunch Tuesday, multiple senators said. Sen. Mike Lee, a Utah Republican, who’s led the push on the talking filibuster in the upper chamber, said a presentation on the maneuver was well-received.
Sen. Mike Rounds, a South Dakota Republican, told reporters “it’s been a good discussion,” but he called the talking filibuster “very unworkable.”
“Nonetheless, it’s one of those things that some of the folks have got an interest in,” Rounds said. “We’re going to continue to do some more research on it. Reality is, I’d love to be able to see this particular SAVE Act brought in and voted on, and make our Democrat colleagues vote on the issue.”
To reach the 60-vote threshold, Senate Republicans would need support from at least seven Democrats. And already one Republican, Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, has come out against it, citing concerns about changes to elections too close to the midterms.
“Election Day is fast approaching. Imposing new federal requirements now, when states are deep into their preparations, would negatively impact election integrity by forcing election officials to scramble to adhere to new policies likely without the necessary resources,” Murkowski said on X on Tuesday. “Ensuring public trust in our elections is at the core of our democracy, but federal overreach is not how we achieve this.”
Thune said Tuesday that Senate Republicans are having a “very robust conversation” about the path forward for the legislation.
“How we get to that vote remains to be seen,” Thune added.
