The reporting
The Senate adjourned at 4:57 a.m. ET Saturday for its August recess without advancing President Donald Trump’s Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, despite his demand that senators stay in session to pass it. The bill would require proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration and direct states to identify noncitizens on voter rolls. Republican Sens. Ron Johnson, Mike Lee and Rick Scott dropped a planned budget-resolution push for a third reconciliation package after concluding it lacked the votes. Senators instead confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general and passed an interim spending bill aimed at avoiding an October shutdown.
