<p>White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Daily Wire White House Correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan on Wednesday that President Donald Trump is urging Republican and Democratic lawmakers to move at &#8220;Trump speed&#8221; and send the SAVE America Act to his desk.</p>
<p>Leavitt&#8217;s comment was in response to Olohan&#8217;s question during a press briefing on whether the White House has been satisfied with the effort from Republican leadership to pass the SAVE America Act.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think the president has made it very clear that he wants everyone on Capitol Hill to move as quickly as possible to get the SAVE America Act passed,&#8221; Leavitt said. &#8220;And he wants to see that legislation on his desk as soon as Republicans and Democrats can move to pass it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Olohan pressed, &#8220;But are there any lawmakers in Congress that the president is frustrated with on this matter and feels could be doing a better job?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think the president wants to see everybody on Capitol Hill move faster all the time,&#8221; Leavitt replied. &#8220;He wants everyone in this town to work at Trump speed like we do here at the White House.&#8221;</p>

<p>The legislation, which passed the House last month, has been caught up in the Senate as Democrats remain united in their opposition to the bill, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote, mandate voter ID, and impose restrictions on mail-in voting. On Tuesday night, the SAVE America Act <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trumps-save-america-act-just-cleared-a-huge-legislative-hurdle-despite-full-dem-opposition?author=Cameron+Arcand&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump%E2%80%99s+SAVE+America+Act+Just+Cleared+A+Huge+Legislative+Hurdle+Despite+Full+Dem+Opposition">cleared</a> a legislative hurdle and advanced to debate, but the 60-vote filibuster threshold remains in the way of the bill&#8217;s final passage.</p>
<p>Earlier this month, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/be-a-leader-trump-challenges-john-thune-as-save-america-act-faces-uncertainty?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98Be+A+Leader%E2%80%99%3A+Trump+Challenges+John+Thune+As+Save+America+Act+Faces+Uncertainty">called</a> on Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) to &#8220;be a leader&#8221; and &#8220;get [the votes].”</p>
<p>“It’s the most popular bill put before Congress,” Trump added.</p>
<p>Democrats appear unwilling to compromise on their opposition to the SAVE America Act as it currently stands, and at least one Republican senator — Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — has come out against the bill. Around half of Republican senators have said they would support a talking filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act, which would force Democrats to speak nonstop on the Senate floor if they want to block a vote.</p>
<p>A large group of Republican senators, however, oppose changing filibuster rules to use the talking filibuster, and Thune argues that the move would be &#8220;complicated and risky&#8221; as it would allow Democrats to control the Senate floor and propose an unlimited number of amendments that could be tacked onto the SAVE America Act.</p>
<p>President Trump has said that he will not sign any legislation until the SAVE America Act is sent to his desk, adding on Sunday night that he does not want Republicans to make a deal with Democrats to fund the Department of Homeland Security unless Democrats &#8220;Vote with Republicans to pass ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.'&#8221;</p>
