Leavitt on Trump’s ‘Nationalize Voting’ Comment: ‘What the President Was Referring to Is the SAVE Act’

‘It provides common sense measures for voting, such as voter ID’

EXCERPT:

LEAVITT: “What the president was referring to is the SAVE Act, which is a huge common sense piece of legislation that Republicans have supported, that President Trump is committed to signing into law during his term. And he spoke with the speaker directly about that yesterday, about the need to get that bill on the floor for a vote, because it provides very common sense measures for voting in our country, such as voter ID. I don't think any rational person who's being honest with themselves would disagree with the idea of requiring citizens of this country to present an ID before casting a ballot in a federal election, or frankly, in any election. And that's something the president wants to see happen.”
