Quote
The bill is a 571-page dreamscape of wild wishes and federal mandates on states. The Constitution decentralizes power over American elections and puts states in charge. H.R. 1 would undo that
Quote
H.R. 1 has 218 cosponsors. It forces states to implement mandatory voter registration. If someone is on a government list -- such as receiving welfare benefits or rental subsidies -- then they would be automatically registered to vote. Few states have enacted these systems because Americans still view civic participation as a voluntary choice. Moreover, aggregated government lists always contain duplicates and errors that states, even without mandatory voter registration, frequently fail to catch and fix.
The link has a long list of things in the bill.  Sounds to me like someone is trying to engineer election fraud nationwide.

Do we have to pass it to find out what's in it?

Um, in the Before Time, wasn't Brown Man Good Barack Obama patiently explaining to us that the decentralized election process makes it impossible to steal the election?

Or was I thinking of someone else?  ???

They are trying to test if that is true.  Its Science!
