John,

Today was a good day for election integrity.

Republicans in the U.S. Senate blocked the Democrats attempt to overhaul our Country's election system that would take power away from voters and give it to Washington bureaucrats. This far-left election takeover bill would have implemented unconstitutional federal standards mandating “national rules” the left has long desired. States would have been forced to allow ballot harvesting, grant felons the right to vote in federal elections the moment they leave prison and eviscerate commonsense state voter ID laws. Taxpayers would have also been required to bankroll campaigns they don’t agree with – mostly in states where they don’t even live.

Here is what RPW Chairman Andrew Hitt had to say on the failed power grab by Democrats: “Wisconsinites want laws that enhance election integrity and bolster their confidence in the electoral process, not laws that dismantle common sense provisions like photo ID, which most Americans support.... Thankfully, Republicans like Sen. Johnson are fighting back against Democrats’ attempts at a federal takeover of our elections.”

Also today our Wisconsin Legislators passed several election reform bills that will be sent to Governor Evers, where he said that he will likely veto them. These bills aim to address voter ID for absentee voters, place limits on ballot drop-boxes, limit outside election campaign funds, and create a reliable system for nursing home voter clarification.
