This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”
Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”
Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”
Silence.
The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.
50% of Americans don’t have a passport.
The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.
The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.
This is not voter protection.
This is voter selection.
And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.
That’s the Senate in 2026.

Great day for Vanderbilt offensive coordinator Tim Beck (Ness City) & Vanderbilt Chief Consultant to head coach Jerry Kill (Cheney) as they help guide Vanderbilt to a 40-35 victory over #1 Alabama. Last year they helped New Mexico State to one of the best seasons in school history. Beck spent most of his career at Pittsburg State where he is an alum and helped the Gorillas to the national championship in 2011 as head coach, while Kill has been with multiple FBS/FCS programs as head coach. #sporstsinkansas
