House Speaker Mike Johnson said Congress will try for a fourth, and possibly final time, to pass the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and a photo ID to cast a ballot.<\/p>\n

Mr. Johnson, Louisiana Republican, said that the House will take up the bill after lawmakers return from the July 4 recess and that he believes President Trump will accept a version that does not include provisions limiting mail-in ballots and restricting transgender athletes and transgender medical care for minors.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we can get proof of citizenship and photo ID to vote, that eliminates so much of the problem, all the fraud, and everything that everybody\u2019s concerned about in our elections, particularly, frankly, in these blue states,\u201d Mr. Johnson said on \u201cFox News Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SAVE Act has stalled for weeks, largely due to opposition from a handful of Republicans in the Senate.<\/p>\n

Mr. Johnson said the House, which has passed a version of the bill three times, has a plan to win enough support in the Senate to finally pass the bill with a simple majority under the budget reconciliation procedure.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019re planning to do is send over a bill that will be irresistible for any Republican. Really incredible piece of legislation that will get the job done, meaning that we will continue to increase affordability, we will reduce fraud, waste, and abuse in government, and we\u2019ll secure elections,\u201d Mr. Johnson said. \u201cEvery Republican would vote for that if packaged correctly, and that\u2019s what we\u2019re planning to do right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Johnson said Republican opposition to the bill by Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, among others, is \u201cbased on what they think may be in it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ms. Murkowski said she opposes the legislation in part because it would require implementing the new rules in the middle of an election cycle and with no federal resources to do it.<\/p>\n

\u201cStates would be forced to bear the entire cost of implementation right away \u2014 just right away. So this is a tall order. Again, you are trying to stand all of this up while we are in the midst of an active election year,\u201d Ms. Murkowski said in a Senate floor speech.<\/p>\n

Mr. Trump urged passage of the SAVE Act in his July 4 speech late Saturday on the National Mall.<\/p>\n

He tied the voter ID bill to keeping America great. He said the legislation should not only require voter identification but also eliminate mail-in ballots except in cases of illness, disability, military deployment or travel.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd you won\u2019t have cheating on the elections anymore. It\u2019s very simple,\u201d Mr. Trump said.<\/p>\n

Election offices in the United States are increasingly allowing mail-in ballots for any reason, and eight states conduct elections entirely by mail.<\/p>\n

In California, the results of the recent gubernatorial primary were delayed for days to allow the counting of ballots received by mail five days after the election. Most of the late ballots supported Democrats.<\/p>\n
