Schumer Admits He’d Rather Shut Down Gov’t Than Require Voters Prove Citizenship

With spending running out and a government shutdown imminent, Schumer has made it clear how much he fears an election that can’t be rigged.

House GOP hates the Trillion-every-100-days debt the Dems are gleefully piling on. But many GOP are willing to negotiate a straight Continuing Resolution bill until the March of the next (hopefully GOP) administration in exchange for one concession in particular.

What is that one concession?

It’s one that Schumer is now rejecting… Election security.

“As I have said before, the only way to get things done is in a bipartisan way,” Schumer said. “Despite Republican bluster, that is how we’ve handled every funding bill in the past, and this time should be no exception. We will not let poison pills or Republican extremism put funding for critical programs at risk.”
Last week, House GOP leaders revealed their version of a continuing resolution, which would provide funding for the federal government through March 28, combined with the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a bill which aims to require individuals show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office and pushes states to remove non-citizens from voter rolls.

Oh, I dunno… Why do you suppose there would be any objection from the party that refuses to purge voter rolls, and whose past Presidents (JFK and LBJ) both have ballot stuffing scandals in their past… To say nothing of the irregularities so often cited in Biden’s Big Win?

What are Dems so afraid of?

It’s truly a mystery.
