Johnson: House will pass SAVE America Act once more in reconciliation bill

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) said on Sunday the House of Representatives will pass the SAVE America Act ‘one more time’ by attaching the legislation to a budget reconciliation bill in an attempt to move it through the Senate and to President Donald Trump’s desk.

While speaking to Fox News’s Shannon Bream, Johnson argued that including the measure in a reconciliation bill would be the most likely path to sending it through the upper chamber, which Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) has said is unlikely given the Senate’s 60-vote filibuster threshold.
