The GOP calls the Freedom to Vote Act a "power grab" because it: -Makes Election Day a holiday -Ends gerrymandering -Establishes Automatic Voter Registration -Prevents voter purges -Takes aim at Citizens United It is a "power grab" -- grabbing power back for the people.
@RBReich How does it take aim at citizens united?
@RBReich People are encouraged to vote and the process is made easy - it is clearly a sinister plot against the original intent of the founders. #FreedomToVote #VotingRights #democracymatters
@RBReich And does not require Id to resister or to vote only citizens should be able to vote not illegal citizens
@RBReich Using public office for public gain could be their motive. If we pinpoint gerrymandering and dark money reforms as what they may truly object to, the racism is just window dressing.
@RBReich @Maksnanny .@SenateDems .@HouseDemocrats Why only 1 day to vote? Voting should last at least 6 or 7 days, so everyone has a chance to vote.
