From Breitbart: Democrat Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) bragged about Democrats and their progress in stopping efforts to ensure that only citizens can vote in federal elections.
“So-and-so signed the so-called executive order. It was a voter suppression Executive Order, trying to do all of the things that the so-called SAVE Act is trying to do, but trying to do it through executive action,” Jeffries said, referencing President Donald Trump’s March 25 executive action titled “PRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY OF AMERICAN ELECTIONS.”
“Under the Constitution, State governments must safeguard American elections in compliance with Federal laws that protect Americans’ voting rights and guard against dilution by illegal voting, discrimination, fraud, and other forms of malfeasance and error,” the executive order reads in part, contending that the U.S. has “not adequately enforced Federal election requirements that, for example, prohibit States from counting ballots received after Election Day or prohibit non-citizens from registering to vote.”
“He does not have the power to do that. And so all the Democrats, the House Democrats, partnered with the Senate Democrats partnered with the Democratic National Committee, partnered with the Democratic Governors Association, and I even joined the lawsuit. Is it up on screen? I even joined the lawsuit as an individual on your behalf,” Jeffries declared during his speech.
Jeffries not only bragged about suing to stop Trump’s executive order ensuring only U.S. citizens can vote, but he then doubled down by posting a video of his remarks on social media.
“Democrats have won round one in the court battle to stop Trump’s voter suppression executive order,” he cheered.
