It is the Senate Republican Conference that handed him the gavel and can take it back.
The House passed proof-of-citizenship election integrity, Senate Republicans have shown functional majority support, President Trump wants it, and the public overwhelmingly backs it by 91%.
Yet Thune hides behind Senate customs, the parliamentarian, and the zombie filibuster while the bill gets buried.
This is not a vote-count problem. It is a nerve problem, a leadership problem, and a Republican accountability problem.
In every other American institution, a chairman who refuses to call a vote on a majority-supported item is replaced by the board. The Senate Republican Conference is the board. The question is no longer whether Thune will move the SAVE Act. He has answered it 3 times, once for each road he declined. The question is whether 27 senators will keep paying him to say no.
