House Republicans Advance Trump-Backed Bills Targeting Judges and Voter Registration

The No Rogue Rulings Act and SAVE Act are set for House votes this week, but their Senate prospects remain uncertain.

Overview

  • The House of Representatives is preparing to vote on two Trump-supported bills: the No Rogue Rulings Act and the SAVE Act, both of which advanced through the House Rules Committee on April 7.
  • The No Rogue Rulings Act, introduced by Rep. Darrell Issa, seeks to limit federal district judges from issuing nationwide injunctions that block presidential policies.
  • The SAVE Act, proposed by Rep. Chip Roy, aims to require proof of citizenship during voter registration to enhance election integrity.
  • House Republicans argue these measures are necessary to counter judicial rulings that have hindered Trump's policy agenda, which they describe as 'judicial overreach.'
  • While the bills are expected to pass the GOP-controlled House, their future in the Senate is uncertain, as they would need bipartisan support to meet the 60-vote threshold.
