House passes bill to fight voter ID laws across the United States

The House of Representatives passed a bill to undermine state voter ID laws on Friday by a mostly party-line vote of 228-187.

H.R. 4 — also called the Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2019 — is an effort by House Democrats to restore preclearance provisions of the 1965 Voting Rights Act that were thrown out by the Supreme Court in the 2013 ruling on Shelby County v. Holder. It seeks to do this by updating the preclearance formula that the high court rejected.

Only one Republican, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, Penn., voted with Democrats in favor of the measure. The House’s lone independent, Justin Amash, Mich., voted against the bill.

Northwest Woodsman: Promoting voter fraud. How else are pedo Marxist democrats going to get elected to office? Certainly not on their policies. I’m thinking that the new Marxist government in the state of Virginia may became overconfident and pushed really stupid gun control legislation too far. It has started a rebellion where what? 40 counties have declared themselves 2d amendment sanctuaries. That is more significant than most people realize. It is a major step in their demise.
