Senate Democrats on March 26 unanimously rejected a Republican amendment to the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act that would have required voters to present photo identification in order to cast a ballot.

The measure, coming as the Senate continues its marathon debate on the SAVE America Act, was put forward by Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio). It was rejected in a 53–47 party-line vote, falling short of the 60 votes it needed.
