Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) did not hold back Wednesday in ripping H.R. 1, the so-called “For the People Act.” The House bill would radically change the United States’ voting system.
Lee called the bill “rotten to the core.” He said it is as if the bill was “written in hell by the devil himself.”
“I disagree with every single word in H.R. 1, including the words ‘but,’ ‘and,’ and ‘the.’ Everything about this bill is rotten to the core. This is a bill as if written in hell by the devil himself,” Lee declared.
“This takes all sorts of decisions the federal government has no business making. It takes them away from the states, makes them right here in Washington, D.C. by Congress, apparently in an effort to ensure an institutional revolutionary Democratic Party of sorts — one that can remain in power for many decades to come. It does this by taking away these decisions.”
“Elections in America have been conducted at the state and local level,” he continued.
“They are completely flipping that principle on its head so that these things can be micromanaged from Washington. That’s wrong. That’s really wrong. It’s bad policy. As much as anything else, it’s wildly unconstitutional.”

Speak loudly and carry a small twig.
Democrats take over all three branches, *NOW* I’m hearing even the GOPE squeal about deficits. I’m a conservative, not a hypocrite; the same people whining about ‘cancel culture’ were all for canceling the Dixie Chicks and the NFL. Both sides are now much more about symbolism than substance.
Slow down...take a deep breath.
Mormons don’t believe in Hell, so I wonder where he got that from?
Mumbai Mike thought his Indian Importation bill was just peachy, so did ALL of the GOP Senators.
GOP - RIP
Senator Lee: Challenge Senate D’rat leader Schumer to a pistol duel over it.
RINOs enjoy being in the minority. Linda and the Turtle have turned fake outrage for contributions into an artform.
What the “hell,” RINO?
The uniparty is just playing “good cop, bad cop” with us. I am not interested in what they say. I’m interested in what they do.
They’ve been playing us for decades. They aren’t playing me any more. I’m done voting.
Ya, well, don't count on the Supreme Court for that.
I wouldn't say funny. Infuriating? Demoralizing?
Once you crack the code that the GOP exists only to be a pretend opposition party that fools us into thinking we have some form of representation in DC while working behind the scenes to prevent all the things they've promised us, it makes it very difficult to support them.
How many republicans does it take to win an election...
I would get rid of every poll worker in the country, make it a high school course and have high school seniors run the polls as part of the class.
Hell is when the chickens come home to roost.
