Democrats Go Fo The 'Kill' To Ensure The GOP never Wins Another Major Election - DC Statehood

[easyt65]

'POLITICIAN PROTECTION ACT'
All House Democrats back sweeping election reform bill, GOP argues it will 'undermine' voting integrity



The bill is expected to be considered on the House floor during the first week of March. Republicans have railed against the bill during previous attempts to bring the legislation to a vote, arguing it would give the federal government more power in deciding the people’s representation.

According to Democrats, the bill would "improve access to the ballot box," by creating an automatic voter registration across the country, and by ensuring that individuals who have completed felony sentences have their full voting rights restored. The bill will also expand early voting and enhance absentee voting by simplifying voting by mail.

The bill also commits Congress to deliver "full congressional voting rights and self-government for the residents of the District of Columbia, which only statehood can provide," prohibits voter roll purges and "ends partisan gerrymandering to prevent politicians from picking their voters."

Republicans have argued such a decision to advocate for D.C. statehood is a political move to ensure two permanently Democratic U.S. Senate seats in what is an approximately nine-to-one Democrat-to-Republican jurisdiction. "



"... a "massive federal government takeover that would undermine the integrity of our elections."



"H.R.1 imposes California-style election rules nationwide. The bill requires every state to register voters based on names in state and federal databases—such as anyone receiving food stamps or who interacts with a state DMV," the board wrote. "Overall the bill is designed to auto-enroll likely Democratic voters, enhance Democratic turnout, with no concern for ballot integrity."



Democrats go for the 'kill' to ensure the GOP will NEVER win a Presidential election or other again....

Welcome to "Forced Socialism"


If this thing passes....will the last American out please bring the flag?!

Every House Democrat signs on to sweeping HR 1 bill, GOP argues it would 'undermine' election integrity

All House Democrats signed onto a sweeping election reform bill Monday that they claim will expand voting rights and "clean up corruption" in politics -- as Republicans rip it as a "federal government takeover" and accuse Democrats of trying to change election rules to benefit themselves.

Don't forget Puerto Rico. Got to end this nonsense that Spanish isn't an American language.

A weak GOP full of RINO's can't fight...won't fight....afraid to fight...

The filibuster will kill any democrat initiatives. They can't get 60 senate votes.

It has to happen. It is prewritten in a religious book.

This is clearly antithetical to the spirit of the Constitution, which provides for a seat of the federal government (U.S. Const. art. I, S 8, cl 17). But then, Democrats have been altering the nature of the Constitution for more than a century.

Why should one state have all legislative and administrative authority?

Maybe that's one reason why DC is not and should not be a state.

Yep. An area not to exceed ten miles square is designated a federal district, not a state.

Where in the Constitution does that appear?

To expand Americans’ access to the ballot box, reduce the influence of big money in politics, strengthen ethics rules for public servants, and implement other anti-corruption measures for the purpose of fortifying our democracy, and for other purposes.

And just what is so bad about access to a ballot box, reduced influence of big money and strengthening ethics rules for public servants with other anti-corruption efforts?

That's exactly why DC was not made into a state. The country as founded was a union of autonomous states, and putting the nation's capitol in any one state would have given that state a lot more power and authority. That still holds true, DC should not be a state.

I wonder how D.C. is going to fund its state government. Right now congress fully funds D.C. and it’s services. Since D.C.’s sole industries are tourism and the Federal Government, I guess we will see very high taxes on tourism eliminating access for most Americans. Columbia, as a state, will be a dumpster fire with no money to build or even maintain infrastructure.
