The Federal government counts the ballots: Ballots would no longer be counted by local governments. Instead, H.R. 1 gives the power to count votes to the federal government.

Redistricts via unelected officials: H.R. 1 would hand the redistricting process over to an unelected committee, stripping the power from state governments and removing accountability and oversight from their constituents.

H.R. 1 is not only a bad bill, many provisions in it are unconstitutional. In summary, it forces states to restore voting rights of felons, endangers First Amendment rights, Federalizes congressional redistricting, and Turns the FEC into a partisan organization.
