This is critical: 1. The SAVE act is overwhelmingly popular (84% across both parties) 2. The silent filibuster is a total abuse of Senate procedure, allowing 40 Senators to block the bill while literally sleeping 3. If Thune does not have the courage to at least require debate, then the SAVE Act will fail And if it fails now, the next time the senate flips, it is very likely that voter ID will be eliminated altogether This would result in a permanent one-party state.
