Mikie Sherrill: “I'm proud to be a co-sponsor of his bill, H.R. 4355.”

Shirley is a veteran of the US Department of Justice and the New Jersey attorney general’s office. She has the judgment to run these elections and the strength to stand up to Trump’s attacks on voting.

If there are areas where it has somehow swept people into its ambit who should not be there, then I am more than happy to work with the Legislature on specific carveouts for those groups.

I say this as a former federal prosecutor: these are the hallmarks of a secret police.

The will of the City’s voters should not be set aside in the manner proposed in the bill.
