Tom Wolf: “I think the arguments have already been made to the gentleman from Georgia, and the same argument would also hold true…”

I think the arguments have already been made to the gentleman from Georgia, and the same argument would also hold true here. And let me say one other thing. If any Member has any information with regard to lobbying or any violation of the law, I hope they'll call, because we have made clear that the committee carries numerous restrictions on political activity from LSC grantees, including lobbying abortion litigation and class action lawsuits. And they cover both the LSC funds as well as the private funds. So if anybody has any information on either side, we will hold a public hearing and deal with the issue. But based on this, this zeros it out. So I rise in opposition to the amendment. I yield back the balance of my time.

Voter intimidation is illegal in Pennsylvania. So I would not want to accuse anybody of breaking the law, but they have taken a very aggressive stance legally.
