Doug Collins

Yesterday was nothing but pure political theater.

In fact, the Chairman even said, you know, it is no longer okay to wait for Robert Mueller.

Whenever there is a perception that there is not an equal treatment on either side, that is a problem.

This hearing is pointless and basically was made even more pointless by the Chairman's opening statement.

This is not about what the good men and women at the Department of Justice are doing.

Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to all who have attended today, and for holding this hearing on gun violence in America.

the uniqueness of Mr. Scalise's testimony, being denied this voice is tragic for all who attend

Just because he probably disagrees with the majority should not have been a reason to keep him out.

Just as a clarification, I appreciate the gentlelady being here and congratulating her on being a part.

Mine is to let everyone vote that wants to vote, that registers and gets there and we have a very generous early voting.

The 'For the Lawyers Act' creates a private cause of action for lawsuits related to Title 3 of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 called HAVA.

It is for the people who don't answer directly to the voters.

This bill takes power away from the people and it does this by violating the Constitution by trampling over both the spirit and the letter of our most fundamental laws.

It does this by violating the Constitution by trampling over both the spirit and the letter of our most fundamental laws.

This bill siphons power from state legislatures, local elected officials, and voters and cedes power to Washington lawmakers, unelected federal judges, and lawyers.

my mother, who is from the poorest place in the country, one of 15 brothers and sisters, who does not miss an election not because her son is in Congress but because she had to fight and march for the right to vote

Indications of long lines is people actually showing up to vote, which I think Ms. Gupta and Ms. Ifill would agree with.

I just want to enter into the record the Supreme Court case Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council.

As we start today, I am confident that every lawmaker in this room agrees that our democracy depends on protecting voting rights and election integrity.

This bill is, in particular, for the unelected elites.

It is my opinion that this is the opposite of a 'bill for the people.' Rather, it is a bill against the people's rights to have their voice heard.

my fear is that we have run around this country talking about voter fraud and we have hyped up a problem that does not exist

This bill, though, is not for the people. It is not for everyday citizens.

Unfortunately, this bill actively undermines those goals.

Why would we want to continue again from a perspective that is not found constitutional by even the liberal, the more liberal Supreme Court Justices?
