CDZ Why are republicans opposed to HR1?

Because they know that in order to win another election - ever ...
They will need to stop or at least slow the ability of the poor, the young, and people of color to vote.
See how easy that was? :cool-45:

I'm sure you realize that it does none of that and in fact, violates the Constitution in a number of areas.
List a few of the areas which would be violated by Article, Section and Clause of the Constitution. Betcha won't do it!
I don't jump through other people's hoops.

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.
You're making an argument that you are unwilling to defend with facts, links, and proof?
The link is the US Consittution. Even you should be able to find it.

Should we presume now that the Democrats represent "the poor, the young, and people of color" whereas the Republicans view all those people as their opponents? If so, can we then presume that the Democrats will finally adopt them as their base and stop relying upon corporate campaign contributions from, say Goldman Sachs, GE, Raytheon, Wells Fargo, Amazon, etc..? Historical evidence?

That is just as absurd as stating the answer to all questions can be found in an unabridged dictionary if you place the specific words of the answer in the correct order. You've caught yourself up in a conundrum without the wit to extract yourself! But keep digging if you will!
 
If there is something specific that’s unconstitutional in this bill, can someone point out what it is?
 
The ACLU was concerned enough about the 2019 version to give it a thumbs down. Not sure they're all that happy yet.. The main objections begin around the bottom of page 12 of 22..

.. Okay, never mind that^
In 2021, the ACLU stopped short of opposing the bill.[85] The group said, "Following the Trump administration's relentless attacks on our democratic system of government, a serious legislative effort to restore and strengthen our republic is needed now more than ever, and we strongly support many of the voting rights provisions in H.R. 1" but that proposed requirements for some organizations to disclose certain donors were "onerous and dangerous".[85] Some former ACLU officials signed a joint letter from constitutional scholars that advocated for passage of the bill as "most significant pro-democracy legislation since the Voting Rights Act of 1965" and wrote, "We do not view First Amendment concerns over the precise scope of disclosure requirements affecting large donors to tax-exempt organizations operating on the margins of electoral politics as outweighing the need for expeditious enactment of the clearly desirable aspects of H.R. 1 into law."[85]

My response was simple and on topic. Yours? Not so much

HR-1 disenfranchises legal citizens. That's why the Dems dig it.
 
Here are several links to articles written by people that likely know a lot more about what's in the bill than any user on this forum. Read the articles carefully before agreeing that HR1 is "For The People".

The bill is predominantly "For The Democrats". (That is to be expected since the Republicans were refused their rights to participate in the formation of the legislation.)

...and it contains provisions that are UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!

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.

.
It's a recipe for voter fraud.

All voting should be when you show up in person to the poll with a government issued photo ID on Tuesday in November, unless you have a legit excuse to get an absentee ballot.

But you want the Democrats to be in charge of elections so you'll buy whatever bullshit story you are fed.
It will terminate any fairness in any election by erasing any safe guards that are still left . Not to mention zero voter ID, massive illegals can vote , you can register and vote on same day and vote many times in different precincts
The last election was rigged and the future ones you might as well only have one party
Also it’s very easy to hack into the computers and change the results

Lol, no. Just stop.
 
Republicans reject automatic registration - why?
because it registers illegal aliens and double and triple registers everyone.
Got any valid & documented cases to prove that assertion with links to your sources? That's too much bullshit to swallow in 3 bites for the biggest loudmouth! What States would be doing that? AND how could a retired USMC Gunny Sgt believe such a story and never have read such a fucked scheme being practiced in any State and validated in the US Courts and major news outlets and TV news?

Go ahead and try to prove that there's no voter fraud, you fucking retard.
I don't have to. Everyone from the GA election officials to Billy the Bagman Barr his own bad self has said there wasn't. Even Moscow Mitch McConell said so, along with the then vice president Pence.

Th voter fraud thing has been completely debunked. Get over it.

The OP may or may not realize that it takes an extended time for the truth to come out when those that favor the lies and control the public narrative (the Democrat Party, the fake news media, Big Tech and liberals worldwide) suppress it.

Users on this forum who have a history of supporting the Democrat Party and their socialist/Marxist/communist agenda will strongly support HR1 simply because it is a zealous Democrat's pipe dream, due to its blatant unconstitutionality.
