(SRN NEWS) – President Donald Trump is renewing his call to fire the Senate parliamentarian, as the proposed “SAVE America Act” remains his top legislative priority.
The push comes following a Supreme Court ruling Monday in Watson v. Republican National Committee. The court decided that ballots received after Election Day can still be counted, as long as they were postmarked on or before that day.
Speaking in the Oval Office, MR. Trump told Townhall the decision was “a little bit surprising” and said it makes passage of the SAVE Act even more urgent.
“The SAVE Act is even more important,” MR. Trump said. “It’s the right-you have to be a citizen of our country.”
The president is also weighing options to move the legislation through the Senate. He raised the possibility of eliminating the filibuster or attaching the measure to a reconciliation bill, which would allow it to pass with a simple majority instead of the usual 60 votes.
“It’s held up in the Senate,” the President told reporters. “If you terminated the filibuster, you just need 50 votes-and you have 53, plus Vice President JD Vance. Or, through reconciliation, you could also do it with 50 votes.”
The SAVE America Act continues to face an uncertain path in the Senate.
