President Donald Trump said he would stop signing bills until Congress passes the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, or SAVE America, Act, a bill that would require individuals to provide proof of citizenship upon registering to vote, as it attempts to get through the Senate.
Trump made his latest move in support of the bill on March 8, writing on Truth Social that he would not sign any other bills that pass his desk until the SAVE America Act is through Congress.
While supported by the president, the bill has drawn criticism and worry from people and groups who fear the legislation could hinder voting rights.
Trump took to Truth Social to support the bill, writing that passing it "must be done immediately."
"It supersedes everything else," Trump wrote in the post. "MUST GO TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE. I, as President, will not sign other Bills until this is passed, AND NOT THE WATERED DOWN VERSION - GO FOR THE GOLD."
