Nancy Pelosi solicited a letter from Stacey Abrams to members of Congress about the upcoming vote on H.R. 1, the For the People Act.
In her “Dear colleague” letter, Pelosi let Abrams describe how critical the legislation is “to the future of the Democracy.” Abrams compared voter suppression in the 2020 election to the Jim Crow era.
”The COVID pandemic revealed both the inequalities in our voting laws and the necessity of standardized guidelines that apply regardless of the U.S. citizen’s state of residence. In response to the critical adaptations made in the 2020 cycle, voter suppression legislation champion by state leaders has accelerated at a pace not seen since the Jim Crow era.
”Measures like dramatic limits to voting by mail, drastic cuts in early in-person voting in concreted efforts to throw out eligible voters threatening our democracy. In several states, even the act of registering to vote is, again, under attack. This decentralized yet coordinated voter suppression strategy demands that the federal government provide the type of natural protection envisioned in the Constitution’s Election Clause. No single state should be permitted to erode access to democracy for an eligible citizen.
”The violent insurrection that attempted to take the U.S. Capitol sharpened our understanding of the vulnerabilities of our democracy. Now, across the states, those who fail to win through the quality of their ideas are trying to silence the voices of those who disagree. Competition in our elections is a native good, coercion to eliminate the voice of the people is not. Congress can once again defend our nations values by passing HR 1, for the people.”
House Freedom Caucus Chair Andy Biggs wrote in an Op-Ed Sunday that the Democrats have tried to introduce similar legislation every two years since they took back the house.

No wonder the NG food is gone. She got it first. All of it.
Someone post a pic of the porker chasing a donut on a stick.
This bill legalizes voter fraud.
More Breitbart Brilliance Bump!
One donut wouldn’t be enough to get her to roll off of the couch and waddle after it. It would take a full pastry box!
Big Stacey in the tank for the ‘rat fraud.
A mega tub of ben and jerry’s...
Ghettopotamus
Rule #5...she orders multiple pizzas every night for a bedtime snack.
She prolly ate Trump’s votes as an appetizer 😎
Got it, Madame Chuck-A-Rama.
Run along and make-up some pancakes.
It's their roadmap. Tells everyone exactly how they pulled it off last year.
Just got a hankerin’ for a big ‘ol stack of flapjacks... with syrup.
We’re done if this passes. Might as well lock the country down. It was a great ride.
You should it without it’s elastic body suit...
Very impressive. Very significant. Very gravitational.
... voter suppression ...
If you cannot figure out how and when to vote, you are a stupid person.
Their near brain-dead candidate supposedly got 80M votes, and we’re supposed to believe there’s “voter suppression?” As usual, different day, same barf BS.
The bill itself is election tampering.
