Title: Senate Republicans Likely to Kill Federal Election Takeover Legislation
Post by: mystery-ak on June 22, 2021, 03:35:35 pm: Senate Republicans Likely to Kill Federal Election Takeover Legislation

Wendell Husebø 22 Jun 2021

Senate Republicans are likely to stand firm on Tuesday and kill the federal election takeover legislation through which Democrats seek to cancel state voter ID laws and publicly fund political campaigns.

The bill, dubbed the “For The People Act” or S.1, will encounter a Senate procedural vote to begin debate on the legislation.

But Republicans, labeling the legislation as a purely a “partisan power grab” by the Democrats “to rig the rules of American elections permanently” in their favor, seem poised to block any discussion of the measure through the filibuster.

In order to advance the measure, Democrats would need ten Republicans to vote with them.

As it should - It is unconstitutional. The fed don't get to tell the states what to do.

“If we deliver [S.1], we maintain power in 2022, to win elections by fraud and rule like a one party government. If we don’t legitimize election thievery...we risk losing power and face real consequences for election theft, by the angry voters.”
