House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) yesterday unveiled a short-term measure to fund the government through Dec. 20. 
The proposed “clean” continuing resolution, meaning a stopgap measure without partisan or controversial bill riders attached, would remove the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. It also includes supplemental funding for the Secret Service.
