President Donald Trump's SAVE Act, an aggressive attempt to curtail voting rights, has earned a Republican opponent in the Senate.

The bill would place nationalized voter ID requirements, put draconian new restrictions on the process of registering to vote, and require voter rolls be purged more aggressively using an infamously unreliable Homeland Security system that frequently flags citizens as noncitizens. It has already earned support from almost the entire Republican Senate caucus, but Republicans currently lack the votes to either overcome a Democratic filibuster or change the Senate rules to avert one.
