Friday, May 21st, the Senate Rules Committee will meet to mark-up S.1, the Senate version of H.R. 1 – otherwise known as the Democrat Politician Protection Act.
This bill is a Democrat power grab and would make our elections less secure.
S. 1/H.R. 1 is not “for the people,” it’s “for the politicians” and is far outside the mainstream.
This bill would federalize elections and weaponize the Federal Election Commission.
Democrats’ bill would implement unconstitutional federal standards mandating “national rules” they have long desired.
H.R. 1 would force states to allow ballot harvesting.
H.R. 1 takes away state legislatures’ ability to draw congressional districts, forcing states to give unelected and unaccountable commissions this power.
Democrats failed to win state House and Senate seats, so now they are trying to change the rules from Washington and take state legislatures’ power away.
Election integrity is one of the most critical issues we face as a Party and as a country. We must ensure Americans have confidence in our elections.
In 2020, the RNC ran its most comprehensive legal strategy to date, spending more than $30 million on election protection efforts in battleground states across the country.
The new RNC Committee on Election Integrity will play a crucial role in restoring confidence in our elections, promoting election integrity, and recommending best practices to ensure that future elections are free, fair, and transparent.
