Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) expressed support for ending the Senate filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act, as he seeks the endorsement of President Donald Trump in his primary runoff against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

In a March 11 opinion piece published in the New York Post, Cornyn said he would support changes to Senate rules if necessary to move the legislation forward.
