What’s happening with SAVE Act?
The House passed H.R. 22 on April 9, 2025, but the bill has seen no action in the Senate since that date. The Senate must schedule a vote for the bill to move forward, though the requirement for 60 votes to advance legislation remains a significant hurdle. Historically, many bills that pass one chamber do not receive a vote in the other chamber.
