John: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott trumpeted Texas' purging of more than 1,000,000 voters under their 2021 voter suppression law. “That removal process has been, and will continue to be, ongoing,” Abbot’s office said.
Partisan election officials conduct these mass registered voter removals, as required by recent Texas voter suppression laws -- laws that include limits on mail-in ballots, drop boxes, laws targeting only Harris County (home to Houston), and so much more.
These purges disenfranchise legitimate registered voters who haven’t moved or had other changes to their status as voters. It's legalized voter suppression at its worst.
Abbott's office continues to malign voters without proof. "Illegal voting in Texas will never be tolerated. We will continue to actively safeguard Texans' sacred right to vote while also aggressively protecting our elections from illegal voting." They said this even after spending millions of taxpayer dollars looking for voter fraud in the 2020 election and finding nothing.
Voter suppression is real, John, not just in Texas but across the country. Push back on these cynical purges with $25 or whatever you can today to protect the right to vote nationwide >>
