The legislation would trigger major changes to how Americans vote, including requiring voters to present proof of citizenship to register, eliminating mail-only registrations, and requiring photo ID in every state for the first time.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) poured cold water on House Republicans’ celebratory mood this week.
