Debbie Lesko: “I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I rise in opposition to this…”

On the recordMarch 2, 2021

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I rise in opposition to this bill. H.R. 1 is for the politicians, not the people. The bill weaponizes the Federal Election Commission, infringes on States' rights, and drastically limits freedom of speech. Arizona requires voter ID and prohibits ballot harvesting. H.R. 1 will undo Arizona laws. This bill also puts people's privacy and security at risk by requiring the disclosure of personal information for political advertisers. The bill is solely designed to benefit politicians from one particular political party. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote against this bill.
