The SAVE America Act passed in the Senate, requiring voter ID with exemptions, no costs, and broad public support, countering claims it would disenfranchise voters.

The SAVE America Act advanced in the Senate, drawing criticism from Fox News’ Jessica Tarlov, who claimed it would disenfranchise vulnerable groups by requiring photo IDs. Her concerns were challenged by colleagues and experts, who noted the bill includes exemptions, no costs for voters, and broad public support—71% of Americans back voter ID laws, including a majority of Black voters. Critics dismissed her claims as unfounded and condescending, emphasizing that obtaining ID is manageable and that the law aims to strengthen election integrity without suppressing votes.
