Washington Examiner chief political correspondent Byron York said that Senate Republicans would experience a “very short-term concession” if they give up the SAVE Act filibuster.

The Senate began a dayslong debate over the SAVE America Act on Tuesday, bringing the voter identification bill to the floor. This legislation is being debated during the partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which York said is a “complete outrage” amid current security concerns.
