Mr. Speaker, Republicans are trying to protect everyone's right to vote and the integrity of the election. It boggles my mind that in some cities in the United States noncitizens are allowed to vote and here in Washington, D.C., and other cities when we go to a restaurant, we need to show our vaccination database passport saying that we are fully vaccinated before we are allowed to enter, but yet my Democrat colleagues don't seem to want voter ID. In the State of Arizona, we have a law in place that requires a voter ID to vote. We also have a law in place that was held up by the courts that prohibits ballot harvesting. Yet it continues to boggle my mind that our Democrat colleagues want to undo what the States have done and undo States' rights. I am opposed to this bill.
