    (5/5) This bill is not for the people, but rather, is full of self-serving policies that only benefit the politicians who authored it. H.R. 1 says a lot about the priorities of Democrat leadership this Congress – themselves.

    (4/5) It weakens election security, promotes shady practices like ballot harvesting, further weakens voter ID laws, impedes free speech, and gives convicted felons the right to vote. None of these things are a good idea – even the ACLU says this bill is unconstitutional.

    (2/5) Last Congress, H.R. 1 was the , which allowed American taxpayers to keep more of their hard-earned money where it belongs – in their pockets. In 1995, it was the Congressional Accountability Act to bring more transparency and oversight to Congress.

    This week, I introduced the High-Speed Refund Act to require California to return all federal funding for high-speed rail. This money is being wasted on a doomed project, and California taxpayers - as well as taxpayers from the 49 other states - deserve a refund.

    Democrats also rejected my amendment to the bill which would ban the practice of ballot harvesting, which is currently legal in California, but significantly erodes trust in the integrity of our election process. Instead, H.R. 1 aims to make this shady practice legal nation-wide.

    H.R.1 is dubbed the "For the People Act," but it couldn't be more inappropriately named. It forces taxpayers to fund political campaigns they may not agree with, endangers our election system, & gives felons the right to vote.

    Thank you, President Trump, for taking action to give our nation's veterans the support that they unquestionably deserve. Every veteran should feel that the nation is 100% behind them, and the President is backing that up.
