President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social his refusal to sign a housing bill approved by Congress, citing dissatisfaction with the Senate’s handling of The SAVE America Act. Trump criticized the lack of passage for this Act, which he asserts has the backing of 97% of Republicans and numerous Democrats. He is advocating for a requirement of photo voter ID and proof of citizenship as preventative measures against voter fraud.
The situation gained more attention when Olive Garden’s new promotion drew comparisons to election security. The restaurant chain promoted its “Never Ending Pasta Pass” on social media, offering 13 weeks of unlimited pasta to the first 10,000 buyers for $100 plus tax. Olive Garden specified that the pass is non-transferable and requires a valid photo ID upon use, a policy that sparked comparisons to election security.
