White House Shields Joe Biden, Sends Kamala Harris in Failed Democrat Attempt to Federalize Elections
Charlie Spiering 22 Jun 2021
The White House Tuesday shielded President Joe Biden from the failed attempt by Senate Democrats to federalize state election rules.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer pushed the S. 1 the “For the People Act” forward in the Senate on Tuesday, knowing full-well that Republicans would keep the bill from advancing without a 60 vote majority.
The Senate bill would federalize congressional elections across the country, requiring voting changes such as automatic voter registration, protecting illegal immigrants from prosecution if they voted, register minors to vote, require early voting, and establishing nationwide vote-by-mail without voter ID. The bill would also allow ballots to be counted ten days after Election Day.
President Joe Biden was kept safe from the political fallout, while Vice President Kamala Harris was sent to join the display of righteous indignation from Democrats after the bill failed to advance with a partisan vote of 50-50.
Biden did not even address the issue publicly on camera on Tuesday, choosing instead to hold an event at the White House to highlight the upcoming fire and drought season in the summer.
He concluded the short event Tuesday afternoon and ignored shouted questions from reporters about the voting rights bill.
