Sen.
Mike Lee, R-Utah is leading the call to honor Sen.
Lindsey Graham by passing the SAVE America Act .
Graham died Saturday evening at the age of 71 shortly after discussing the voting integrity bill with President Donald Trump.
“This is something Lindsey Graham spent a lot of time with,” Lee told Maria Bartiromo on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” program, “One of the best ways we could honor Lindsey Graham’s legacy would be to take this up and pass it this month.”

The bill, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and voter ID to cast a ballot, was top of mind for Graham in their final conversation just prior to his death, according to Trump, who called the senator a “strong advocate” for the bill.

The president told “Meet the Press” on Sunday that Graham had phoned him early Saturday evening after arriving home from a trip to Ukraine .
“He called and he said, ‘We’re all set on the SAVE America Act’.
He was pushing the SAVE America Act like crazy.”
Graham admitted he was tired, then repeated his desire to pass the Act.
“And I said, ‘We’re going to get it done, Lindsey.
We’re going to get it done.
I’ll see you soon.’”
The pair even talked about meeting up today.
“And then that was it.”
Soon after the call, Graham died.
During his appearance on Fox News, Lee laid out “multiple paths” for passing the SAVE America Act:
Attaching it to a must-pass vehicle.
“Bringing it up on the floor” of the Senate and debating it until it passes.
An approach called a “talking filibuster” that Lee has long advocated and believes has the best chance of working.
“Picking out pieces of it that could be implemented through creative uses of budget reconciliation.”
