By urging reconciliation for the SAVE America Act, he is not tinkering at the margins of procedure; he is inviting his party to embrace the same ruthless discipline Democrats showed when they muscled through the American Rescue Plan. That means accepting the risk of a brutal Byrd bath, swallowing the judgment of an unelected parliamentarian, and living with the fallout if key provisions are ruled out of bounds.<\/p>\n<p>If they back down, the message to voters will be unmistakable: when it mattered, Republicans flinched. If they push ahead and survive, they will not only rewrite election law, but also redraw the unwritten map of Senate power\u2014proving that in modern Washington, the side willing to use every rule usually wins.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kennedy is forcing Republicans to confront a choice they have long tried to avoid: either treat election integrity as a campaign slogan, or as a hill worth bleeding for.
