This legislation overreaches our Constitution. It violates a citizen's basic free speech rights under the First Amendment.

H.R. 1 will weaken our voting system by centralizing the voting process, creating unsurmountable vulnerabilities.

This provision requires the registering of 16- and 17-year-olds who are, in fact, not eligible to vote, only furthering that risk.

H.R. 1 also overreaches our Constitution by taking the power away from States to decide how their elections should be administered.

The Federal Government, Madam Chairperson, does not have a good history of providing cost-effective internet access to many programs.

It violates a citizen's basic free speech rights, such as expressing displeasure with the electoral process, by choosing not to participate.

We want to make sure that vote by mail is utilized in a manner throughout this Nation.
