Democrats are pushing another federal takeover of elections with the so-called John Lewis Voting Right Advancement Act. This one is a power grab forcing states to get permission from the Democrat-controlled federal government before implementing election integrity measures like voter ID and other constitutional safeguards.
While the fate of the Corrupt Politicians Act (H.R. 1 and S. 1) remains uncertain, Democrats are positioning for Plan B to blow up the Constitution’s design of states having the primary role in elections, with Congress and the federal government having only a narrow role for issues like voting rights violations due to race.
There are two big guns in the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which was passed to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment. One is Section 2, which is a permanent nationwide ban on any state or local election laws that discriminate based on race or color.

Anything named after John Lewis is likely to be of dubious honor. He was well known as a race baiter for his last 25 years. Nasty words for any who didn’t immediately genuflect in from of the altar of WOKE/PC matters.
When John Lewis died last year, the press were tripping over their own feet lavishing praise and compliments on his memory.
I was impressed when our then President TRUMP did not do the usual thing, the expected thing and lie about how wonderful someone was, just because they were now dead. I don’t think he issued any formal statement. That of course, drove the media even more mad than before. I enjoyed it.

Unconstitutional on the face of it.
