Trump Ramps Up the War on Voting before the Midterms | First Draft with Mother Jones' Ari Berman & Susan J. Demas

Is there a possibility the SAVE Act makes it to Donald Trump's desk?

He’s ordered Republican gerrymandering and called for federal control of our elections. Donald Trump has made it no secret that he will do whatever he can to suppress the vote heading into the midterms, as support for him and his policies plummet in the polls.

One of his obsessions is the SAVE Act, which would severely impact millions of Americans’ access to vote. It’s already passed the House. Ari Berman, National Voting Rights Correspondent with Mother Jones, joined Susan J. Demas on First Draft here on Lincoln Square to give a bit of history behind this legislation — and brief us about how likely it is that it makes it through the Senate.
