特朗普与共和党参议员就《拯救美国法案》产生分歧

福克斯新闻首席国会记者查德·珀格拉姆在《特别报道》节目中报道特朗普总统推动共和党参议员通过《拯救美国法案》的相关情况。

参议院共和党人将闭门讨论搬到了线上,就陷入停滞的选民身份认证和公民身份核查法案互相攻击。

唐纳德·特朗普总统希望共和党人通过《保障美国选民资格(SAVE)法案》,但参议院的政治现实——即便采取参议院共和党内部未获统一支持的极端手段——也让该法案的通过几乎无望。

尽管如此,这并未阻止特朗普、线上支持者以及参议院该法案的主要支持者传递这样的信息:只要共和党人有勇气行动,《拯救美国法案》就能通过。

这一途径将是通过“发言式阻挠议事”,支持者称此举将削弱民主党人的反对,最终使《拯救美国法案》以简单多数票获得通过。

反对者警告称,此举将占用参议院最宝贵的资源——议事时间,并让民主党掌控参议院的议事节奏。此外,人们还担心共和党无法保持团结,无法否决民主党提出的各类议题修正案。

这些对立立场导致原本只会在参议院闭门会议中出现的分歧,在社交媒体上公开爆发,尤以犹他州共和党参议员迈克·李与德克萨斯州共和党参议员约翰·科恩之间的争执最为突出。

“美国参议院历史上,从未有过‘发言式阻挠议事’能让提案支持者获得有利结果的先例,”科恩在X平台上说道,同时附上了一份列出发起发言式阻挠议事诸多“问题”的备忘录。

其中包括以下论点:该议事方式会因出席要求使竞选活动更加困难;民主党可就分裂共和党人的“议题”发起无限数量的棘手修正案投票;民主党可能将程序拖得过长,导致《拯救美国法案》可能无法在大选前生效。李随即反驳称,科恩的备忘录“恰恰说明了为什么发言式阻挠议事是必要的——而非我们应该避之不及或假装它不存在”。

“你列出的程序性障碍——包括双发言规则、法定人数、日程拖延以及机会成本——确实存在,”李说道。“但它们也是可控的——在很多情况下,只要共和党人真正利用规则而非向规则投降,这些障碍甚至可以用来强化我们的谈判立场。”

“另一种选择——放弃《拯救美国法案》——代价要高得多:又一场没有公民身份证明的选举,公众对选举信心进一步受损,以及民主党继续利用同样的程序对付我们,”他继续说道。

科恩的回应只有一个词:“幻想”。

与此同时,众议院也面临着自身的《拯救美国法案》争端,这一争端险些摧毁长期以来必须通过的《国防授权法案》(NDAA)。佛罗里达州共和党众议员安娜·保利娜·卢纳要求众议院议长、路易斯安那州共和党人迈克·约翰逊将该法案纳入庞大的《国防授权法案》一揽子计划。

约翰逊让步了,但将采用众议院已通过、而参议院一直未能推进的同一版本选民ID法案。在未来几周和几个月的《国防授权法案》谈判中,参议院可以轻松删除该条款,以确保五角大楼授权法案获得通过。

众议院将于周二下午迈出该计划的第一步。

大多数参议院共和党人支持最初版本的《拯救美国法案》,其中包括选民ID、选民登记时的公民身份核查、让国土安全部访问选民名册以及其他政策。

但特朗普希望采用他版本的《拯救美国法案》,该法案额外增加了对邮寄选票的严格限制、禁止跨性别男性参加女子体育赛事,以及禁止为未成年人进行变性手术,而这一版本在参议院共和党人中并未获得50票支持。

该版本的法案也未在众议院获得通过。

周一最高法院做出裁决,允许迟到的邮寄选票仍可计入投票,这再次激起了特朗普对该法案的兴趣,并将他的怒火指向了参议院。

“在我国正兴起一场比第一次世界大战、第二次世界大战、珍珠港事件或9·11事件都更危险的强大共产主义运动之际,所有民主党人以及我们的五名共和党参议员叛将——丽莎·穆尔科斯基、苏珊·柯林斯、汤姆·蒂利斯、比尔·卡西迪和米奇·麦康奈尔——都必须投票拯救我们的国家,”特朗普在Truth Social上说道。“不能再有任何借口了!”

值得注意的是,路易斯安那州共和党参议员比尔·卡西迪从未在参议院就该法案的多种不同版本投下反对票,而缅因州共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯支持众议院通过的最初版本法案。

GOP infighting over Trump’s voter ID bill erupts as top senator calls strategy ‘fantasy’

Senators Mike Lee and John Cornyn trade barbs on social media over ‘talking filibuster’

Trump, GOP senators clash over SAVE America Act

Fox News chief congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reports on President Trump’s push for GOP senators to pass the Save America Act on ‘Special Report.’

Senate Republicans are taking closed-door conversations online to snipe at one another over stalled voter ID and citizenship verification legislation.

President Donald Trump wants Republicans to pass the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, but the political reality in the Senate, albeit through extreme measures that don’t have unified support among the Senate GOP, makes passage unlikely.

Still, that has not stopped Trump, supporters online, and key proponents of the legislation in the Senate from pushing the message that the SAVE America Act can pass, but only if Republicans have the guts to do it.

That avenue would be through the “talking filibuster,” which proponents say would grind down Democrats’ resistance and ultimately lead to the SAVE America Act passing at a simple majority threshold.

Opponents warn that doing so would dominate the Senate’s most valuable commodity — floor time — and allow Democrats to control the tempo of the upper chamber. And, there’s fear that Republicans wouldn’t stay unified to kill Democratic amendments on a variety of issues.

Those dueling positions have caused clashes typically kept behind closed doors in the Senate to manifest on social media, notably between Sens. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and John Cornyn, R-Texas.

“There is not a single instance in the history of the United States Senate where a ‘talking filibuster’ has resulted in a favorable outcome for the proponent,” Cornyn said on X while sharing a memo that included numerous “issues” with launching a talking filibuster.

Among those were the arguments that it would make campaigning more difficult because of attendance requirements, that it would allow Democrats to force unlimited votes on politically tough amendments on “issues that divide” Republicans, and that Democrats could drag out the process so long that the SAVE America Act might not be implemented before the election. Lee shot back that Cornyn’s memo “perfectly illustrates why the talking filibuster is necessary — not why we should avoid it like the plague or pretend it doesn’t exist.”

“The procedural hurdles you list (including the two-speech rule, quorum, calendar drag, and opportunity costs) are real,” Lee said. “But they’re also manageable—and in many instances can even be used to strengthen our negotiating position—if Republicans actually use the rules instead of surrendering to them.”

“The alternative — walking away from the SAVE America Act — has far higher costs: another election without proof of citizenship, more erosion of public confidence, and Democrats continuing to weaponize the same procedures against us,” he continued.

Cornyn’s response: “fantasy.”

Meanwhile, the House is facing its own SAVE America Act dispute, which has threatened to blow up the perennial, must-pass National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., demanded that House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., include the legislation in the colossal NDAA package.

He relented, but it will be the same version of the voter ID bill that the House already passed and that the Senate has been unable to move. And during negotiations over the NDAA in the coming weeks and months, the Senate can easily strip the measure out to ensure that the Pentagon authorization bill passes.

The House will take its first step on that plan Tuesday afternoon.

Most Senate Republicans support the original SAVE America Act, which includes voter ID, citizenship verification to register to vote, giving the Department of Homeland Security access to voter rolls, and other policies.

But Trump wants his version of the SAVE America Act, which tacks on tight restrictions on mail-in ballots, halts biological men from participating in women’s sports and bans transgender surgeries on minors, which does not have 50 votes of support among the Senate GOP.

That version of the bill has also not passed through the House.

The Supreme Court’s decision on Monday to allow mail-in ballots that arrive late to still be counted has again stoked Trump’s interest in the legislation and directed his ire toward the Senate.

“In a time when there is a powerful Communist Movement taking place in our Country, one more dangerous than World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor, or September 11th, all Dumocrats, and our five Republican Senate Hold Outs, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, Thom Tillis, Bill Cassidy, and Mitch McConnell must vote to SAVE OUR COUNTRY,” Trump said on Truth Social. “There can be no more excuses!”

Notably, Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., has never voted against the SAVE America Act in its many different variations in the Senate, and Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, supports the original version of the bill that passed the House.
