My message to Twitter: Before you decide to censor speech by throwing a label on the president of the United States – or any American – make sure you know the facts yourself.
"We owe it to the American people to carefully and thoughtfully examine the issue of vote-by-mail. This must be done before forcing voters to use a new, and at times, complicated method of voting. These issues deserve to be addressed by the Subcommittee on Elections..." wrote Davis.
On April 9th, just six weeks ago, Speaker Pelosi assured us and the American public that any change to the House's voting methods 'won't happen unless we can do it in a bipartisan way.' Unfortunately, now the House is faced with this proxy voting process the Democratic majority forced through on a partisan basis. Not only does this proposal violate the constitution, but it takes away the voice of the American people. Our constituents elected us to represent their interests in Congress, not to hand over our votes on crucial legislation," said Ranking Member Davis. "Under this proxy voting scheme from the Democrats, potentially 20 Members could be voting for over 220 - Only 20 Members to control the fate of the House and the legislation presented within it."
WASHINGTON - Last night, Committee on House Administration Ranking Member Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) appeared on NewsmaxTV's Spicer & Co. to expose potentially the greatest threat to ballot integrity in our nation's elections: ballot harvesting.
"The biggest vulnerabilities in our election are voting behind closed doors, and reliance on the Postal Service to delivery ballots to the right place. Ballot harvesters thrive in an environment where elections are put in the hands of the Post Office and where voting takes place where the public cannot see it. Ballot harvesters prey on the most powerless and economically vulnerable in these circumstances," said J. Christian Adams, President, Public Interest Legal Foundation.
