Rep. Virginia Foxx Advocates for Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE Act)

The SAVE Act and Voter Eligibility

• 🗳️ The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE Act) aims to amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993.
• 🔑 It would require proof of US citizenship to register to vote in federal elections.
• 🎯 The core principle is that only American citizens should have the right to vote in American elections.
• 🤝 The act is presented as an opportunity for bipartisan support to add protections to elections.

Addressing Rogue Rulings and CFPB Rules

• ⚖️ The No Rogue Rulings Act of 2025 seeks to limit the authority of district judges from issuing sweeping nationwide injunctions.
• ⚠️ This is in response to what are described as "rogue judges" exceeding their constitutional authority.
• 🏦 Two Congressional Review Act resolutions are discussed: SJRES 18 and SJRES 28, both targeting Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) rules.
• 📉 SJRES 18 aims to overturn a CFPB rule that could negatively impact low-income Americans' access to liquidity and overdraft protection.
• 🔗 SJRES 28 targets a CFPB rule that is seen as unfairly shackling companies in the digital asset marketplace.

Legislative Process and Governance

• 📜 The House rules committee met to produce a rule (HRES 294) for considering four measures, including the SAVE Act and the No Rogue Rulings Act.
• 🏛️ The rule provides for debate and motions to recommit for each measure, ensuring a structured legislative process.
• 🤝 Speaker Johnson is recognized for his efforts in maintaining a family-centric posture and building consensus.
• ✅ The focus is on governance and moving forward with legislative objectives, adhering to majority principles while respecting precedents.
