The Facts About H.R. 1—the For the People Act of 2019
The Heritage Foundation
Democrats in Congress, under the Biden administration, have renewed their efforts to make sweeping changes to America’s electoral laws. H.R. 1 federalizes and micromanages the election process administered by the states, imposing unnecessary, unwise, and unconstitutional mandates on the states and reversing the decentralization of the American election process—which is necessary for protecting our liberty and freedom. The bill interferes with the ability of states and their citizens to determine qualifications for voters, to ensure the accuracy of voter registration rolls, to secure the integrity of elections, to participate in the political process, and to determine the district boundary lines for electing their representatives.
