The House races to pass key legislation before its August break, including the controversial SAVE America Act — requiring citizenship proof and photo IDs to vote — attached to a stock trading bill. While Republicans back both measures as vital for election integrity and financial reform, Democrats fiercely oppose them, calling the voting bill voter suppression and the stock bill insufficient. Meanwhile, the Senate moves forward with a sweeping budget that funds the Iran war, intelligence agencies, and the SAVE Act — while also offering emergency aid to struggling farmers. A short-term funding bill to avoid a September shutdown passed with Republican support and Democratic opposition over transparency and campaign spending. On a sobering note, new data reveals rising hunger nationwide, as SNAP reforms have stripped millions of children of food aid — especially by expanding work requirements to older adults and parents of older kids.
