Things just escalated in the fight to maintain free and fair elections.
I wish I had better news.
H.R. 1/S. 1, the legalized election theft bill is one of several bills being pushed by the political establishment that are a complete affront to the Constitution. . .
. . . and it looks more likely to pass now than ever!
Yesterday in President Joe Biden’s first ever press conference, he made an ominous remark about the 2024 election, casting doubt that there will even be a Republican Party left by that time.
What a shocking statement.
Nobody bothered to ask him what he meant, but it certainly begs the question about why he said that.
Could it be they are getting ready to severely weaken or destroy the Senate filibuster so that they can ram through H.R. 1/S. 1?
Patriot, with all the arm twisting of the two Democrat holdouts to changing the filibuster rule, I am very worried Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) may both cave to the pressure very soon.
That’s why I am asking for your urgent action at once before we lose any more ground.
Sign the petition demanding your U.S. Senators oppose S. 1 when it comes up for a vote!
If there is one bill in 2021 that could permanently scar the fabric of the Constitution, it’s H.R. 1/S. 1, which already passed the House.
H.R. 1/S. 1 not only institutionalizes many questionable election processes that were fraught with the most controversy in 2020, but it’s also a direct attack on the 1st Amendment and the right to dissenting political speech.
As Chairman of Campaign for Liberty, I wrote a letter, which was delivered to the members of the Senate Rules Committee, describing specific examples of how this bill would silence political speech with fear and intimidation of activist groups just like ours.
Patriot, both sides of the aisle should be against this bill, simply based on its flagrant disregard of the 1st Amendment.
Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) sounded the alarm in an op-ed about just how horrific this bill would be:
“The true purpose of H.R. 1(/S. 1) — better characterized as the “Illegal Voting Act” — is not to increase legal voting. It’s to increase illegal voting and crack down on criticism of the government. It’s an Alien and Sedition Act for the 21st century: partisan, unconstitutional and borderline tyrannical.”
In short, H.R. 1/S. 1 would allow for the permanent manipulation of elections by nationalizing them.
This bill has so many bad ideas in one package including:
>>Making it illegal to clean out voter rolls of deceased or non-residents;
>>Forcing states to allow early voting;
>>Forcing states to allow vote-by-mail, which is fraught with opportunities to commit fraud;
>>Forcing taxpayers to subsidize candidates they don’t align with politically; and
>>Policing online speech about elections with new broad and sweeping powers.
As unimaginable as this all sounds, we are getting much closer to this becoming a reality!
The Biden Administration is making swift moves behind the scenes to defang or eliminate the Senate filibuster and pave the way for S. 1 to pass with a simple majority with Vice President Kamala Harris as the tie-breaking vote.
Patriot, I’m not sure we’ll ever be able to undo the damages if the worst-case scenario happens.
The so-called “For the People Act” empowers federal regulators to categorize and regulate speech, including online.
That means Campaign for Liberty could be in legal jeopardy for running our critical candidate survey program so you will know where candidates stand on issues important to you. . .
Not only that, but merely telling you how your legislators voted on legislation could become a CRIME!
Sign the petition at once!
Then, please consider pitching in $35, $50, or even $150, to give Campaign for Liberty the resources we need to stop this brazen attempt to steal future elections!
Our elections were never meant to be “nationalized” in this way. The U.S. Constitution clearly states that elections are to be held and electors for the presidential election chosen by the manner in which the state legislature prescribes.
H.R. 1 /S. 1 would completely turn this on its head and force states to adopt rules for their elections that many of them do not want or are in the process of remedying because of flaws they have discovered.
H.R. 1 /S. 1 would thwart those efforts by the states and even counties to rectify issues they may have discovered or will discover as investigations, hand re-counts and court cases continue in Arizona, Michigan, and others.
Considering the sidestepping of the Constitution on locally controlled elections and the attack on political speech, this bill should be opposed by all sides.
Sign the petition!
I am urging all members of the Senate to oppose this reckless bill, and I appreciate your support in doing so as well.
For Liberty,
Ron Paul
Chairman
