Trump couldn’t send troops to the polls without approval of Congress under Dem bill
Senate Democrats introduced the Protect Our Polls Act, requiring Congress to approve any deployment of federal troops to polling places. The bill aims to prevent President Donald Trump from invoking a legal exception to bypass restrictions on troops at polls, as concerns grow over potential deployments during the midterm elections. The White House responded by promoting its own legislation, the SAVE America Act, which has stalled in the Senate.
