The House of Representatives has sent the Save America Act to the Senate five times, but the Senate has failed to pass it. The bill requires voters to show identification and proof of citizenship. Failing to pass this bill has been a devastating blow to the Republicans performance in the midterm elections. If the Republicans do not end the lengthy debate process and fail to approve all, even "dream" proposals, which the Democrats certainly will, it will be one of the biggest mistakes in American political history. Anyway, good luck to the Republican senators, and I hope you do a good job. Also, congratulations to John Thune on winning another year of leadership, even though the Republicans may now be in the minority!According to Japans Kyodo News, the United States is demanding that Japan bear more than 3 trillion yen in costs for US troops stationed in Japan over the next five years.Market news: U.S. Bancorp is ramping up its hiring efforts to attract mid-sized market clients.Lithium Americas: The estimated tariff risk exposure for this fiscal year has now been reduced to approximately US$60 million.
