Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Wednesday blasted new election reform amendments proposed in S.1, saying the bill would ensure Democrats continue to win elections ad nauseam.
Calling the bill the “single most dangerous piece of legislation we’ve seen in decades,” Cruz told the Senate Rules & Administration Committee the “For the People Act” should more aptly be dubbed the “Corrupt Politicians Act.”
“This bill is designed to corrupt the election process permanently and it is a brazen and shameless power grab by Democrats,” Cruz stated during the hearing.
“It speaks volumes,” Cruz continued, “that this is HR1 and S1, that the number one priority of Democrats is not Covid, it’s not immunizations, it’s not getting people back to work, it’s not getting kids back in school – it’s keeping Democrats in power for 100 years.”
“This bill mandates ballot harvesting,” Cruz stated elsewhere, describing how it would allow party operatives go out and collect ballots.
“This bill has rightly been called the Corrupt Politicians Act because it is designed to keep corrupt politicians in office and everyone that supports it should be ashamed.”
Cruz continued to assail S.1 in a Real Clear Politics op-ed, saying Democrats “wrote [the bill] to expand voter fraud and try to ensure that they’ll never lose again.”
Read an excerpt from Cruz’s piece below:
And if the Corrupt Politicians Act is signed into law, things will only become worse. This bill would destroy the American people’s confidence in our democratic system for the foreseeable future because it is designed to rig future elections for the radical left.
I have no doubt that protecting the integrity of our elections and the voting rights of the American people will continue to be a major focus for elected officials here in Washington and across the country. And while there are common-sense proposals Congress can consider, it’s the states that the Constitution entrusts with ensuring that our elections are safe and secure and protecting the voting rights of all law-abiding Americans.
This bill is not designed to protect the right to vote. Instead, it’s a dangerous and brazenly partisan power grab designed by the Democrats to corruptly turn their current razor-thin majority into a much larger and permanent majority so they can enact the Green New Deal and other items on their deeply unpopular progressive wish list. And allowing millions of illegal voters to cast votes robs you of your constitutional right to vote.
Democrats did not write the Corrupt Politicians Act to strengthen our elections system or to restore trust in our democracy. They wrote it to expand voter fraud and try to ensure that they’ll never lose again.
We have to fight every step of the way to stop the Corrupt Politicians Act. We have to stand for free and fair elections and the rule of law, and not hand the future of our republic and our elections to the radical left.
