Sen. Tim Scott defends the SAVE America Act, a GOP bill requiring citizenship proof to vote, amid claims it could suppress votes.

Sen. Tim Scott defended the SAVE America Act, a Republican-backed bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote, rejecting Democratic claims it resembles historical voter suppression. The legislation, supported by President Trump, aims to prevent fraud and strengthen election integrity, though critics warn it could disenfranchise up to 20 million voters, particularly those without birth certificates. The bill also bans mail-in voting and expands federal access to voter rolls. The debate underscores deep partisan divisions ahead of the midterms.
