Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman disclosed that he would not vote for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act during a Friday episode of The Conversation with Dasha Burns.
Host Dasha Burns noted on the Politico show that Fetterman has deviated from much of his party by not opposing voter ID and explained that the SAVE Act would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections.
