U.S. SENATE — U.S. Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) today announced he will be introducing a substitute amendment to the SAVE America Act to include President Trump’s priorities to restore election integrity, keep men out of women’s sports, and protect children from gender mutilation surgeries.

“The American people want to see a return to common sense, and this week the Senate will vote on the SAVE America Act to deliver on this mandate.
