Senate Votes on Save America Act

Advertisement The vote represented a notable improvement from an earlier election-integrity amendment offered by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), which failed 48-50 after four Republican senators joined Democrats in opposition.

The legislation would require proof of U.S. citizenship for federal voter registration and strengthen voter identification requirements nationwide

GOP Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, and Thom Tillis of North Carolina all opposed it.

When Lee later introduced the clean House version of the legislation, Collins switched her vote and joined the rest of the Republican conference in support of the measure.
