Don't Be Fooled: H.R. 4 Is Just Another Power Grab

In June, Democrats failed to sell the federal takeover of state elections known as H.R. 1/S. 1 to the American people.

Don't fall for their partisan lies: H.R. 4 has the same rotten core as H.R. 1 and would make our elections far less secure.

H.R. 4's goal is to eviscerate the right of states to manage their own elections with appropriate transparency and ballot-security safeguards.

"Preclearance" is central to H.R. 4 - this plank of the law would require every state election official to submit any election law changes to the Department of Justice for approval.

H.R. 4 contains other provisions that should concern every American who wants elections to be free, fair, and transparent.

Democrats are upset that states like Georgia, Florida, Arizona, and Iowa have taken the initiative and passed strong election integrity laws.

H.R. 4 is totally out of line with public opinion and an extreme power grab that Americans will reject.
