Biden to sign executive order aimed at increasing voting access
By Brett Samuels - 03/07/21 12:05 AM EST

President Biden on Sunday will sign an executive order leveraging federal resources to protect and strengthen access to the ballot as Republican legislatures around the country seek to restrict voting rights in the wake of the 2020 election.

Biden will sign an order that will direct agencies to increase access to voter registration materials and reduce barriers to voting for certain groups, including military and overseas voters, Native Americans and people with disabilities.

The president on Sunday will also speak at the Martin and Coretta King Unity Breakfast to outline his focus on voting rights. The order and speech come on the 56th anniversary of the "Bloody Sunday" march in Selma, Ala. The violent clash between 600 civil rights marchers and white police officers on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in 1965 served as a catalyst for the passage of the Voting Rights Act.


"Every eligible voter should be able to vote and have it counted," Biden will say at the breakfast, according to prepared remarks. "If you have the best ideas — you have nothing to hide. Let more people vote."

The problem is that America is being ruled. When people consider themselves the "ruling class", we're already off base. Those are our employees incontinently crapping on not only the voters, but the Constitution as well. Time to fire some people.

Indeed. With disturbingly little complaint from the GOPe.

They fancy themselves the new nobility in the ruling class. What's for them to gripe about?

Like I said, they are not doing their jobs. Nonperformance of basic duties is cause for termination of employment anywhere.

Consider that the rats are doing all of this with the thinnest of margins in congress. GOP leadership should be screaming from the rafters. No wonder Trump doesn't want them campaigning using his name & likeness.

Now minors, dead people, multiple voters and non-citizens are all eligible voters. There will never be an honest election ever again.
