Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis) has demanded a vote on changing the 60-vote Senate filibuster rule as Republicans struggle to pass the SAVE America Act through the upper chamber. Johnson argues that it is crucial to get Democrats on the record to clarify their intentions. He also supports scrapping the 60 vote requirement, but leaves open the possibility of voting no if enough Democrats demonstrate they want to keep the filibuster in place. While the GOP has 53 Senate seats, it would require seven Democrats to overcome the filibuster. Sen. John Kennedy (R) has suggested that Republicans use the budget reconciliation process to pass this bill with a simple majority.
