    With their diluted resolution yesterday, Democrats failed to condemn Rep. Omar for her anti-Semitic remarks, and they also conveniently failed to include condemning the death threats against many Republican members of Congress, including my own experience.

    We've watched Democrats prioritize illegal immigrants over American citizens for a while now. But today they took it a step further by blocking our motion to prevent illegal immigrants from voting in elections—effectively devaluing the vote of legitimate voters.

    Democrats are so focused on appeasing their radical base that they refused to work with , a former FBI Special Agent and federal prosecutor who dealt with election crimes, on amendments to H.R. 1 that would clean up voter fraud and secure our elections.

    Democrats promised a fair and open process. Yet this week they shut out Republicans entirely—this time on their bill to protect Democrat politicians by lining the pockets of their candidates with taxpayer money and making U.S. elections more susceptible to illegal voting.

    Democrats once again sided with their radical base over the American people. This time they blocked the Republican motion to prevent illegal immigrants from voting in our elections. So much for election security.

    It's clear why Democrats want H.R. 1, the "Democrat Politician Protection Act,” so badly. Illegal immigrants could be added to voter rolls and felons convicted of voter fraud will get the right to vote. That's outrageous, and it puts the security of our elections in jeopardy.

    The House is preparing to vote on . Earlier this week, I made remarks about why this is such an enormously misguided piece of legislation from Democrats.

    This diluted condemnation only highlights the real problem in the Democrat caucus: Speaker Pelosi awarded a known anti-Semite with a coveted spot on the Foreign Affairs Committee. My full statement ↓

    If becomes law, it will be easier for illegal votes to cancel out the voice of legal voters.

    Democrats claimed H.R. 1 would get money out of politics. But instead it's going to funnel billions of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of candidates and campaign consultants. How it works: if someone gives a campaign $100, the federal government will give that campaign $600.

    H.R. 1, the "Democrat Politician Protection Act" enables voter fraud across the country by throwing out state laws that require people to show their ID and prove who they are before voting.

    Congratulations to my friend and colleague on becoming the longest serving Republican in the history of Congress! Honored to serve with you.

    Republicans weren't consulted on H.R. 1, and Democrats once again voted down every single Republican amendment to the bill. It sets up a system of fraud, abuse, and misuse of taxpayer funds. Bottom line: H.R. 1 leaves the future and integrity of our elections in doubt.

    Follow the money: H.R. 1 diverts taxpayer funds into candidates' and consultants' pockets by expanding the use of campaign funds to include child care and other personal expenses. Democrats are pursuing "reforms" that benefit themselves, not the American people.

    After promising to run a transparent House, Democrats let special interest groups write a 622-page federal takeover of elections blatantly tailored to use taxpayer money to enrich candidates and campaign consultants with a 6 to 1 taxpayer-funded match of small dollar donations.

    H.R. 1, the “Democrat Politician Protection Act" + Forces states to allow felons to vote + Overrides state voter ID laws + Removes safeguards to prevent voter fraud + Creates a system where taxpayer money funds candidates the taxpayer doesn't support

    Make no mistake, was developed to serve the special interests of Democrats and the outside organizations that support the Democratic Party. We are failing the people if we don't do our due diligence to create bipartisan election reform that will protect each American voter.
