Sen. Lisa Murkowski becomes first Republican to oppose GOP voter ID bills, citing federal overreach and voter access risks.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, has become the first Republican senator to oppose the SAVE America Act and MEGA Act, two GOP-backed voter ID bills, citing concerns over federal overreach and potential harm to voter access.
She argued that election administration is a state responsibility, warning that one-size-fits-all federal mandates could disrupt preparations and undermine trust, especially in diverse states like Alaska.
Murkowski highlighted the inconsistency in Republican opposition to Democratic election reforms in 2021 while supporting similar federal measures now.
With the Senate requiring 60 votes to pass, and Democrats vowing to block the bills, her stance underscores deep GOP divisions on election policy and the challenges of passing sweeping voting reforms in a divided Senate.
