Lawmakers had already been compiling a fresh package of bills in the aftermath of special counsel Robert Mueller's findings in the Trump-Russia probe. But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Democrats are now pushing ahead with votes because it's part of "what the American people elected us to do."

Even though the nations intelligence agencies said from early 2017 that it was clear Russia tried to influence the 2016 election in favor of Trump, Republicans who led both chambers did not move comprehensive legislation to address the issue. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has declined to hold a vote on a Senate election security bill that has bipartisan support.

Rep. John Sarbanes, D-Md., among those leading the effort, said Trumps attitude toward foreign interference was breathtaking and, he believes, the president is taking the country in the opposite direction of where the public wants to go, which is to feel more confident, not less confident in the vote.
People should be concerned that were going to see another round of attempts to attack our democracy of the kind we saw in 16, Sarbanes said in an interview. He said special counsel Muellers report, which extensively detailed the Russian interference, flashed a neon sign that Russia was coming again.

MSM whores for the Leftwing cause.
As long as Chinese support is allowed to continue the politicians will support the bill.
I for one would like to be back on offense. After the StephieStepOnAnElephant interview we are back on defense.
Seriously? You don’t see what Trump has done here?
Requiring Voter ID so the millions of Illegal Invaders who are in our Country dont get away with Voting in the 2020 Election?
Please explain it.
Never mind.
So you must know things Rush does not.
?never mind?
Does that mean they now support voter ID?
Trump is setting a trap. The Demonrats can’t fund a dossier from a foreign agent like The PIAPS did. The whole “Steel Dossier” used to push Russian Collusion is now something the very people that used it say is unethical. He has set The PIAPS up as unethical using sitting members of congress’ own word
PDJT has cut their feet out from under the demonrats.
Rush?
"Just a happy little accident!"
Impose voter ID by executive order. After all, we don’t know how may Russians have infiltrated our porous borders in order to cast fraudulent votes in our elections. Only Russian collaborators would oppose voter ID to protect the integrity of our electoral system.
it’s part of “what the American people elected us to do.”
Ahhh, no
Excellent, Democrats.
Keep that lie going.
Yeah, Donna Brazile was afraid the Russians were gonna get her.
Hey let’s make sure only US CITIZENS are allowed to vote by making it necessary to show ID. Otherwise foreigners could interfere with our elections!
