It is a voter suppression bill. The SAVE act would make it easier to buy an AR15 than to register to vote. Republicans won't tell Americans, for example, that Under the SAVE act, states would be required to hand over voter records to be screened through a DHS system rebuilt by Elon Musk's Doge squad. You think that's on the level? No way. This is not about protecting democracy. This is about giving Trump and his allies more power to decide who gets to vote and who does not. (01:15–01:26)
