Why can't our Senate pass the Save Act? (Public Board)

They can use reconciliation to pass the Save Act. If they do that they only need 50 votes, with Vance providing the deciding 51st vote. Thats how they passed the Big Beautiful bill. The Senate parliamentarian is a problem if she advises against the Save Act for some reason. Thune could override her, but he is such a coward/puppet I don't know if he would do that. Reconciliation is the only way to to avoid nuking the filibuster.

The filibuster is not part of the Constitution, its a Senate procedural rule to delay a vote through endless debate. I'd rather them not nuke it, but the problem is that we have no chance to have election integrity without passage of the Save Act.

If reconciliation doesn't work, they should nuke the filibuster and get it done. Democrats can't win elections without their mail-in ballot schemes and no voter-Id. They're the party of bad ideas. The people they care about are the illegals, their last chance to hold on to power. They'll do anything to make sure they can keep voting.
