H.R. 1

Antitrust laws need to apply to unions also.

100% agree

 

[RikidyBones]

Public sector unions should be dissolved while we are at it.

And their defined benefit retirement plans (pensions) should as well. Give them a 401k and call it a day.

This right here is why there are military security personnel guarding the Capitol. These commie bastards need all the security they can get trying to pass this garbage legislation against the will of the people.

Practically, I'm not sure the feds can tell states how to run their elections.

 

[midnight orange]

No I don’t. I think we need a united front to be rid of the money in politics and we are clearly not going to unite for anything... which is a shame because that is where true citizen power is derived from.

Money and power will always find each other.

 

[newyorkvol]

“Standing up to them” by raiding their chamber and offices is a fool’s errand. The naïveté lies in someone who thinks that matters. The real power lies in the the vote. If they were actually held accountable by their constituents then the money would hold much less power. Better yet, if we all pushed for candidates who included term limit legislation in their platform then that would be even better. Everyone recognizes the career politician BS is a detriment.

It is true that we all should push for term limit candidates. The problem is that the voting population is too malleable and gets re-focused by campaigns to die on the sword of less important but more polarizing issues.

Our Trump appointed judges might save us on this one. Talk about lunacy though. They’re gonna make it more difficult to buy a beer than to vote

Even the titles of leftist democrats legislation is disingenuous. Much like the “1/6 commission” they wanted, this too has a vastly different motive than the name infers. I mean, who couldn’t vote for a John Lewis Voting Rights Act??

This should be dead on arrival.

This dem's have the book on disingenuous. How do you think they've tricked black America for 5 decades?

I would hope so. What worries me is they’re saying Murkowski and Manchin apparently support this out of the gate. Hopefully they see the light on this as it’s discussed in committee.

Widespread support for voter ID and making early voting easier: national poll

I guess the majority of Americans are racist after all which is exactly what the idiot liberals will take away from that.

Not accepting voter ID is such a pathetic excuse for an idealogue. It comes across as cheating and winning at all costs and we know better. Integrity be damned.

 

[Boston Vol]

Some aren’t taking the news so well

 

[AshG]

Voter ID? Cool.

Now end partisan gerrymandering. Have boundaries drawn by neutral parties based on demographics and population density.

Where do we find these mythical neutral parties?

Bipartisan commissions, then?

I say we give a 4th grade class a map and crayons. Redo it with a new class every 5yrs
