A GOP Senator scolded his colleagues during a Fox News interview on Saturday over the way they’ve handled President Donald Trump’s signature election legislation.
Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) told hosts on “The Big Weekend Show” that his colleagues don’t seem interested in passing the SAVE Act, which Trump has been pushing them to do for several months. The legislation would overhaul America’s election system and give federal agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security, more authority over election security.
Kennedy complained that his colleagues are not trying to pass the bill through reconciliation, which would bypass the need for Democratic votes. He suggested that the party move on from trying to recruit Democrats for the effort and instead pass the bill with only Republican votes.
“Some of my colleagues think that if we talk about the SAVE Act long enough, Democrats will give in,” Kennedy said. “If you believe that, then you are proof that human evolution is a slow process! Your cocker spaniel knows better. Democrats are not going to vote for the SAVE Act. We are going to have to do it with Republican votes.”
