In this Breitbart article, Mariane Perez reports that Sen. Mike Lee pushed back after Sen. John Cornyn dismissed the idea that Republicans could force passage of the SAVE America Act.
- Cornyn rejected a conservative argument that Senate Republicans could pass the bill by forcing Democrats into a talking filibuster, using Vice President JD Vance’s tie-breaking vote, ignoring the parliamentarian during reconciliation, or changing the cloture threshold.
- Cornyn responded bluntly that it was “not gonna happen,” saying anyone who thought otherwise was “naive or misinformed.”
- Lee fired back by saying the bill could pass if Republicans put it on the floor and showed enough resolve to keep debating until it succeeded.
- Lee rejected Cornyn’s framing, saying he was “neither naive nor misinformed,” but unwilling to pretend Republicans had no way to avoid failure.
- Cornyn said he supports the SAVE America Act, is a co-sponsor, and has voted for it before, but argued that the Senate math simply is not there.
- The dispute also involved Senate Majority Leader John Thune, whom Lee criticized for not doing the hard work needed to advance the bill.
- Cornyn defended Thune, saying the problem is not leadership but vote count reality.
- Cornyn also warned that Republican infighting hurts the party’s chances of keeping or expanding its Senate majority in November.
