Rep. Barry Moore: Democrats are dishonorably shaming Americans as racist to coerce submission to historic federal election takeover

Statement

Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) released the following statement after voting against Democrats' unprecedented, unconstitutional power grab that puts federal officials in control of state and local elections and massively advantages the Democratic Party in all future elections.

"Don't believe for one minute the party so brazenly canceling out legitimate American votes by openly funneling millions of illegal immigrants to the voting booth and assaulting voter I.D. laws cares one lick about voting integrity or imaginary voter suppression," said Moore. "It is downright insulting that Democrats who are cheapening the sacred right to vote so many Americans fought and died for have the gall to claim the moral high ground as protectors of the ballot box. We've seen record minority voter turn-out in recent elections and exceedingly high minority voter registration, yet Democrats' "solutions' to their imagined crisis would simply make voting less secure, erasing our gains and disenfranchising millions of legitimate, lawful voters.

"The progressive's playbook to tar any opponent of partisan, so-called "voter protection' bills or supporter of the filibuster as racist and an enemy of democratic elections ignores facts and common sense. Their playbook is a carbon copy of their scheme to shame anyone who dares question the ever-evolving and often contradictory pandemic pseudo-science peddled by power hungry bureaucrats and Leftist politicians to force lockdowns, mandates, and whatever expansion of Big Government power they can justify. Yet despite the Left's propogandist talking points shamelessly parroted by their Fake News coconspirators, the real voting rights crisis and threat to our republic is being created in liberal-run cities and sought by Democrats in Washington.

"Our country is experiencing multiple historic crises that have tried and tested all freedom-loving Americans, but we cannot afford to succumb to the immense pressure, lies, and name-calling from power-thirsty Washington Democrats and their woke corporate captives and surrender the liberties and rights we value so deeply. We must answer the call demanded by these unprecedented dangers to our representative democracy and fight back or else the protections secured by our Constitution to defend our form of government will be stolen from us."
