On the recordOctober 23, 2019
I would be more than happy to work with my colleague to do whatever we can to deal with protecting our elections and ensuring that they remain free and fair. As I am sure the gentleman understands, representing a rural district, too many folks in our communities are being left behind, and they should not be left behind in the least bit when it comes to the sanctity of our elections. While we might be in a position where, unfortunately, partisanship gets in the way of these issues, I will note that to simply say these things won't become law is part of the problem. I think it is also important to deconstruct why these things are not making their way into law in the first place. When people become overly partisan in this environment, we are at an impasse, unfortunately. I am here to work beyond that. Madam Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
