The reform could leave millions of Americans without the right to vote by requiring proof of citizenship and a photo ID in a country where there is no mandatory national identity card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The future of the project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After its approval last March in the House of Representatives, the bill is stuck in the Senate, where Republicans have so far failed to secure the 60 votes needed \u2013 as they only hold 53 seats \u2013 two weeks before the start of the August recess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president took the opportunity to lash out at the Democratic opposition, whom he once again disparagingly called &#8220;Dumocrats&#8221;.<br>&#8220;Remember, stupidity always brings defeat and death,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We recommend reading: <a href=\"https:\/\/deultimominuto.com\/internacionales\/trump-ordena-detener\/\">Trump orders halt to airstrikes against Iran to negotiate a deal<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump also insists on the idea of &#8220;ending the filibuster,&#8221; a parliamentary mechanism that, for most Senate bills, requires gathering 60 votes to close debate and bring an initiative to a final vote, which usually forces the search for support from both parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington.- U.S. President Donald Trump urged the Republican Senate majority leader on Monday to prevent the chamber from suspending its activity during the August recess until the &#8216;Save America&#8217; bill is passed.
