IRS, Inmates, Obamacare Eyed in Biden’s Get-Out-the-Vote Plan, Liberals Boast in Report

Fred Lucas / @FredLucasWH / May 09, 2023

The Internal Revenue Service not only is involved in voter registration, it should get more involved, a coalition of over 50 liberal groups argues.

Meanwhile, the Obamacare exchange will attempt to drive up voter registration, while agencies within the Justice Department have acted to ensure that prisoners in federal custody may cast a ballot if eligible.

President Joe Biden’s Executive Order 14019, which requires federal agencies to get involved in boosting voter participation, is a little over 2 years old.

However, members of Congress, the press, and watchdog groups unsuccessfully have sought information on how Biden’s order is being implemented. The Justice Department has claimed presidential privilege to shield related documents from release.

Yet, the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights spearheaded a “progress report” on implementation of Biden’s get-out-the-vote order. It was joined by more than 50 other liberal organizations, including the SPLC Action Fund (affiliated with the controversial Southern Poverty Law Center), the American Civil Liberties Union, Demos, Public Citizen, and the Sierra Club.

“The executive order is unconstitutional. States are supposed to be in charge of election laws,” Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., told The Daily Signal in a phone interview Monday. “The administration has not been telling the American people what they are doing.”

Sounds like a blatant violation of the Hatch Act which forbids using Federal resources for political campaigns.
