Where is this coming from?


There was a thread on here several days ago explaining it. I’m looking for it.

Interesting. Absent some special procedural exception like reconcillation and a couple other things, the Senate rules simply apply as normal.

As far as I am aware, the SAVE act is ordinary legislation.

Advancing the bill does not mean they will go through with the talking filibuster which would allow the SAVE Act to pass with just 50 votes.

Collins I know was already leaning towards supporting it, but McTurtle? If he's actually on board, I have questions.....


McConnell doesn’t even know that there’s a bill to be voted on.

Obamacare was far more impactful, and didn’t get 60 votes.

That’s not correct at all
Here’s a link to the 60 votes it got to pass.

Hope this helps

Ever noticed on the major bills that there is always just enough republicans cross over to join the democrats but it's never in the other direction.

Did you look at the vote tally? Zero republicans in the senate voted for Obamacare

It is still very unlikely that this ever passes unfortunately.


So the people against this are clearly against the USA. Correct?
