To: Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV)
Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ)
Dear Honorable Senators Manchin and Sinema,
Whereas, H.R.1, the “For the People Act,” a nearly 800-page, monstrous bill sponsored by Maryland Democrat John Sarbanes of Baltimore, will nationalize our elections by having Washington tell the states how to manage and run their own elections; and
Whereas, this bill, as House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy says, “is a massive federal government takeover that would undermine the integrity of our elections”; and
Whereas, H.R. 1 will mandate that all 50 states enact the very election systems that have caused so much Concern over the results of the 2020 elections (mass unsolicited Mail-In Ballots, no voter IDs, same-day registration, etc.); and
Whereas, this Orwellian-named Act is totally unfair and will lead to permanent one-party control of the United States government; and
Whereas, the Act will not likely gain the 10 Republican votes it would need to override a Senate filibuster against it; and
Whereas, you have both pledged that you will NOT vote to abolish the filibuster for any reason;
Therefore, I, the undersigned, do hereby urge you to help save our elections by keeping your word and VOTE NO on any attempt by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and his fellow Democrats to abolish the filibuster.
Signed,
