Debates

• The U.S. House of Representatives is voting on historic impeachment articles against President Trump, escalating political tensions. • The proceedings, labeled 'TRUMP IMPEACHMENT LIVE,' involve key Democrats and Republicans debating charges related to recent executive actions. • This development could lead to Senate trial, impacting midterm election strategies and party unity.

• The House passed DHS funding bill H.R. 7147 earlier in 2026 to secure operations, but Senate disagreements over spending have delayed votes as of March 2026. • Delays threaten USCIS offices in Florida and nationwide, slowing visa applications, renewals, and Dreamer status adjustments. • Without approval, DHS faces potential shutdown, limiting immigration processing and creating uncertainty for immigrants.

Congressional Republicans, backed by President Trump, are advancing the SAVE America Act in the Senate this week after House passage last month, mandating documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for federal voter registration alongside photo ID requirements. The bill's strict provisions, lacking any phase-in period, would take immediate effect if signed into law, potentially impacting midterm elections by burdening millions of eligible voters without easy access to documents like birth certificates or passports. Critics including the Fair Elections Center warn it could disenfranchise married women, people of color, and rural residents, moving the U.S. 'in the opposite direction' of representative democracy. Noncitizen voting remains rare and illegal nationwide, but Republicans argue the safeguards enhance election integrity.
