Political Quotes

“more and more I am troubled by a simple question: Will Donald Trump be the last President ever elected by a free and fair election? That certainly seems to be the plan. In 2024, Donald Trump said: Get out and vote, just this time. You won't have to do it again. In 2023, he said that he would be a dictator on day one. In 2021, after he lost, he tried to overturn the election, which led to people attacking this Chamber where we stand right now. When Donald Trump talks about elections, he does not hide what he wants. He keeps talking about taking over elections, and his number one legislative priority is the SAVE Act. The only one thing that this bill is designed to save is Donald Trump's political future. This bill would create a paperwork nightmare for millions of Americans. The SAVE Act requires documents that millions of citizens do not have in order to vote. That is right. Even the new REAL ID drivers' licenses we all had to get don't meet the standard. Even military IDs wouldn't count. You will need a passport, which costs you about $160 and takes weeks to receive, or your birth certificate. Mr. Speaker, did you know that half of the country does not have a passport, and millions more don't have access to their birth certificate? Then there are married women who might have changed the name on their documents, and so now they don't match because they changed their name. The SAVE Act also ends online and by-mail voter registration.”
