Summary
Trump’s pushing hard to kill the Senate filibuster, demanding Republicans abandon the 60-vote rule to pass his SAVE America Act — arguing Democrats would do the same if they held power. While some Dems resist full elimination, they’re open to ditching it for critical bills like voting rights. Pressure is mounting as Trump insists Senate leaders stay until the bill or the filibuster is gone. GOP senators are also shifting, blaming Democrats for obstruction. Though a full repeal seems unlikely, lawmakers may use budget reconciliation to sidestep the filibuster and get parts of the SAVE Act through.
