Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) blocked an attempt by Senate Democrats to push through a federal election overhaul bill early Wednesday morning.In the dead of night, Schumer sought to pass the federal overhaul of elections by unanimous consent, according to the Houston Chronicle.
The Democrats’ bill to federalize elections failed. Our constitutional republic was the big winner. S. 1 fell short of the 60-vote threshold required. Thank goodness for the filibuster. The proposal was a revolutionary rearrangement of the American political system.
Radicals are cramming a federal takeover of elections through a key vote on the 'Corrupt Politicians Act,' part of their plan with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to transform America into a permanent one-party socialist nation.
As 120 retired generals and admirals wrote -- 120 retired generals and admirals, in case you missed it, in an open letter, quote, "H.R.-1, S.R.-1, if passed, that would destroy election fairness, allow Democrats to forever remain in power, violating our Constitution, and ending our representative republic."
Republican Utah Sen. Bill Lee said Wednesday that the Democrats are seeking long-term power by pushing their H.R.1 voting bill, legislation.
HR1 / S1, the "supposed" For the People Act is really a thinly-veiled power grab by DC politicians. The #CorruptPoliticiansAct is all about seizing control of elections, thereby ensuring a one-party, socialist national government. Do we really need more election chaos?
Senate Democrats are cramming a federal takeover of elections through a key vote on the Corrupt Politicians Act this week, part of their plan with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to transform America into a permanent one-party socialist nation.
Not a single provision in the deceitfully named “For the People Act” (S. 1) contains reforms that benefit “the People.” It is not comprised of articles of reform, but provisions for the oppression of the public. It should instead be named the “Corrupt Politicians Act.”
Congressman Burgess Owens (R-UT) on Tuesday slammed Democrats’ claims that Georgia’s new voter integrity laws are somehow comparable to Jim Crow laws. The freshman congressman shared his personal experience under Jim Crow, saying that it’s “extremely offensive” to make the assumption black Americans aren’t capable of getting a form of identification.
A notorious bill moving through Congress – H.R. 1 – contains a swarm of bad ideas. But little noticed is a provision that makes Election Day obsolete. We’ve lost so many unifying cultural events that bring Americans together, it is no surprise that H.R.1 not only would start the election weeks earlier, but also prolong the election well after Election Day.
