🚨BREAKING: Sen. Mike Lee will formally object to the Senate beginning its August recess until the SAVE America Act is passed.It takes only one senator to block the automatic recess and force a recorded roll call vote.Lee has stated: “I hereby object to any effort to put the Senate into recess in August—at least until such time as the Senate has passed the SAVE America Act—and hereby request a roll call vote.”The SAVE America Act would require proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections and photo identification to cast a ballot. The measure has already passed the House and is awaiting Senate action.By forcing the issue, Lee is putting every senator on record before lawmakers leave Washington for the traditional August break.
