House Republicans Are Set to Pass a Voter Suppression Bill That Would Disenfranchise Millions | “It’s a five-alarm fire for American voters and for election officials”

It just passed in the House.

Democrats petitioned for protections for people with a name change and Republicans voted against it. If your birth certificate name doesn’t match your ID, you’ll be needing new documentation if you want to vote. Yes, that includes a married surname.

Democrats are also pushing harder to help them ban ranked-choice voting and prevent third parties from getting into the ballots.

Both parties know they’ve lost any relevance. They’re entrenching, and helping each other do it.

It is a ridiculous premise that most people are highly motivated to vote at all. Certainly, passports are a high income trait, and birth certificate preservation, a stable organized family trait. The real GOP bias is allowing drivers licenses as sufficient ID. Rural people need them. Urban, not so much.

Yes, what they are trying to do is bad, but note that it needs 60 in the senate to pass the filibuster

Senate Dems were pretty vocal against it last year when they tried to get that through. Still make sure to call your senator and tell them to vote no on cloture for it, but don't preemptively doom about it passing the house
