So Blacks can't write their name? And don't have ID's? And can't stand in line on election day? Or can't find their way to a polling place?>what laws are those? present one.Republican voter suppression laws.what does it solve?
but yet another demo post without evidence to support their statement. We're in the CDZ, so post the law you reference.
Georgia Republicans are pushing dozens of 'election integrity' bills. Black voters are the target, rights groups say.
As the battle over voting rights plays out in legislatures across the country, advocates say federal protections are more necessary than ever.www.nbcnews.com
What illegal rules?Why bother? It probably sucks. The filthy Dems want to make illegal COVID voting rules permanent.Please see my previous post.Which is why there should be a voting ID. Voting is for Citizens. Not Residents ,legal or not.the states do not indicate on the id they are illegals. Which means when they interact with the federal government there is no indication they are illegal.Without asking for thier immigration status?I am sorry but at east 10 states allow illegals to get a drivers license.Then first time you get a DL they requires a birth certificate. University and welfare will ask for proof of immigration status.Can you demonstrate that you can differentiate illegal aliens from legal immigrants?What it solves? It removes obstructions to people wishing to exercise their right to vote.why don't you explain what it solves?That's a RWNJ fantasy, not a fact.By forcing states to automatically and duplicatively register all people to vote through government outposts such as motor vehicles, state universities, and welfare agencies, H.R. 1 would register millions of illegal migrants to vote in the United States.
Why? The military have been absentee voting for something like a century. No problems there.HR1 has nothing to do withWhy are republicans opposed to HR1?
It's seems to me there is nothing but good in this bill. Someone please explain why the republicans hate it.
H.R. 1 FACT SHEET
CLEAN AND FAIR ELECTIONS
Improve Access – H.R. 1 expands access to the ballot box by taking aim at institutional barriers to voting, including cumbersome voter registration systems, disenfranchisement and limited voting hours. H.R. 1 will create automatic voter registration across the country, ensure that individuals who have completed felony sentences have their full voting rights restored, expand early voting and enhance absentee voting, simplify voting by mail, reduce long lines and wait times for voters and modernize America’s voting system.
Promote Integrity – H.R. 1 commits Congress to build the record necessary to restore the Voting Rights Act, as embodied by the House-passed H.R. 4. It 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 like those seen in Ohio, Georgia and elsewhere and ends partisan gerrymandering to prevent politicians from picking their voters.
Ensure Security – H.R. 1 ensures that American elections are decided by American voters, without interference, by enhancing federal support for voting system security, particularly with paper ballots and also by increasing oversight of election system vendors and by requiring the development of a national strategy to protect U.S. democratic institutions.
END THE DOMINANCE OF BIG MONEY IN OUR POLITICS
Guarantee Disclosure – H.R. 1 shines a light on dark money in politics by upgrading online political ad disclosure and requiring all organizations involved in political activity to disclose their large donors. H.R. 1 also breaks the so-called ‘nesting-doll’ sham that allows big-money contributors and special interests to hide the true funding source of their political spending.
Empower Citizens – H.R. 1 strengthens the political power of hardworking Americans by creating a multiple matching system for small donations. This innovative, 21st-century system of citizen-owned elections will break the stranglehold of special interests on Congress and lay the groundwork for an agenda that meets the needs of the American people. The voluntary multiple matching system will be completely paid for by a new surcharge on corporate law breakers and wealthy tax cheats. That way, the individuals and corporations who break the public trust – like Wells Fargo, which created fake bank accounts for unwitting customers, or Volkswagen, which lied about harmful carbon emissions from its vehicles, or Facebook, which violates Americans’ privacy, or Purdue Pharma, which fueled the opioid crisis – bear the cost of building a more just and equitable democracy. H.R. 1 also reaffirms Congress’ authority to regulate money in politics, pushing back on the Supreme Court’s wrong-headed Citizens United decision.
Strengthen Oversight – H.R. 1 ensures that there are cops on the campaign finance beat that will enforce the laws on the books. H.R. 1 tightens rules on super PACs and restructures the Federal Election Commission to break the gridlock and enhance its enforcement mechanisms. It also repeals Mitch McConnell’s riders that prevent government agencies from requiring commonsense disclosure of political spending.
ENSURE PUBLIC SERVANTS WORK FOR THE PUBLIC INTEREST
Fortify Ethics Law – H.R. 1 breaks the influence economy in Washington and increases accountability by expanding conflict of interest law and divestment requirements, slowing the revolving door, preventing Members of Congress from serving on corporate boards and requiring presidents to disclose their tax returns.
Impose Greater Ethics Enforcement – H.R. 1 gives teeth to federal ethics oversight by overhauling the Office of Government Ethics, closing loopholes for lobbyists and foreign agents, ensuring watchdogs have sufficient resources to enforce the law and creating a code of ethics for the Supreme Court.

No it does not.I'm sure you realize that it does none of that and in fact, violates the Constitution in a number of areas.
But you want the Democrats to be in charge of elections so you'll buy whatever bullshit story you are fed.
Don't make comments you won't defend.I don't jump through other people's hoops.List a few of the areas which would be violated by Article, Section and Clause of the Constitution. Betcha won't do it!I'm sure you realize that it does none of that and in fact, violates the Constitution in a number of areas.
But here is an idea. Go look up who is given the authority and power to set election laws by the Constitution and then compare it to what this bill says.
If the Dems ram through nationalizing our elections, they'll only accomplish tearing the country down sooner. The other half of this country will NOT live with an illegitimate band of corrupt assholes who want to put a boot on our neck. If you want that, it's going to take more than one stolen election. If you guys are SURE you're up to it, come get some!Name those individual freedoms enumerated by Article, Section and Clause in the Constitution which would be taken away from the People and those governmental powers taken from the People and absorbed by the government!it basically takes away a lot of individual freedom and increases the power of government...
There is nothing wrong with this bill. There is something wrong with the conditions that made people write is.There are many many problems with HR1
It looks like it was drawn up in the middle of the night by a bunch of young Democrats.
The total lack of verification on mail-in ballots. Don't be obtuse, man. No signatures, no ID to prove the voter is even legally eligible to cast the ballot. You folks are bumping up hard against going absolutely surreal. Just because you own the media doesn't mean the rest of us are too stupid to see what you're doing. But hey, blather on. The one enduring truth about this nation is that we all work together or it will fall apart. Your choice, choose well because there will be no going back. Even intellectually superior folks like yourself will be affected and there will be no way to avoid it.It's not bullshit. Read the text of the bill. Those are the things that it will do. What specific problems do you have with it?I'm sure you realize that it does none of that and in fact, violates the Constitution in a number of areas.
But you want the Democrats to be in charge of elections so you'll buy whatever bullshit story you are fed.
Nothing wrong with refusing to verify who's actually voting? WHY is that necessary? There are numerous examples, including our Tan Messiah, who's enjoying his 3rd term right now, who admit that mail-in balloting invites cheating. Stop trying to piss down our back and tell us it's raining.There is nothing wrong with this bill. There is something wrong with the conditions that made people write is.There are many many problems with HR1

That's where you are wrong. We do identify with either paryts platform.Excellent rant, but it's not just Republicans, certainly not all Republicans, some Democrats, and others. Our enemy is The Haves. ALEC initiates this crap because that's what the billionaires pay them to do. Sure, on average, Republicans probably embrace it more than any others, but pointing to and blaming them exclusively is just being divisive (dividing and conquering, destructive) for no reason. We get herded into parties. We don't necessarily identify with any one's particular platforms at any given time.Why are republicans opposed to HR1?

Just start at the top. Republicans are opposed because it would improve access. Republicans are not about lots of people voting. Matter of fact, they have taken many initiatives, hundreds of them actually on the state level, to limit access to voting for specific blocks of voters, basically any block that does not vote for them. We are in the mist of the largest assault on voting rights since the black codes of the early 20th century. It is disgusting if you ask me, and it is a huge indicator that Republicans realize their policies are not what is best for the country, it is what is best for a select group of their supporters, mostly the wealthy and the powerful. Ethically, they have no standing. Morally, they are reprehensible. And I am talking about their leadership. Their supporters, well Bless their heart, they are just STUPID.
And the guarantee disclosure part. That is a huge problem for Republicans. Which again points to the reality that they cannot publicly defend their position. I mean this shit is not rocket science. It is simple common sense. It is a disgrace that the Republican party even exists, let alone that they can actually occupy seats in either the house or the senate. State legislatures are even worse. If anything it is a testament to the total disengagement of the American population. Because I am here to tell you, if we can snap our fingers and bring back the population of this country during the American Revolution they would absolutely be tarring and feathering Republicans before running them out of town on a rail.
Dude, that is all lies and right wing propoganda. Do some research.The total lack of verification on mail-in ballots. Don't be obtuse, man. No signatures, no ID to prove the voter is even legally eligible to cast the ballot. You folks are bumping up hard against going absolutely surreal. Just because you own the media doesn't mean the rest of us are too stupid to see what you're doing. But hey, blather on.

Not necessarily all the time. How many can even describe their party's platform? I credit many with requiring at least some description of a thing they're supposedly supporting before presuming they're "for it" simply based upon their party affiliation. My parents were Democratic Party handle pullers. We argued plenty and for good reason.That's where you are wrong. We do identify with either paryts platform.We get herded into parties. We don't necessarily identify with any one's particular platforms at any given time.
You're.fallimg for the RWNJ propaganda.The total lack of verification on mail-in ballots. Don't be obtuse, man. No signatures, no ID to prove the voter is even legally eligible to cast the ballot.

It does not. Those states verify immigration status when issuing the licenses and they are clearly identified as non citizens.16 states issue id to illegals. That means in 16 states illegals will be registered to vote by this bill.
