The Senate skipped town Saturday for its August recess without passing President Donald Trump’s legislative priority, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act. “[The] SAVE America Act is a very important thing,” Trump had said in a Thursday interview with Punchbowl News. The postponed $95 billion reconciliation package was intended to advance election integrity priorities, fund the Iran war, and provide aid to farmers. The American people overwhelmingly support election integrity and the SAVE America Act. — Mike Lee (@SenMikeLee) August 7, 2026The Senate previously left for a two-week recess in late June while the SAVE America Act was stalled.
