Remember when President Joe Biden said that COVID-19 pandemic was over? We sure do. Yet, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi continues to use COVID as an excuse to extend proxy voting and not fully reopen the House.
House Republicans will restore the people’s voice by: ✔️ Ending proxy voting & requiring Members to show up to vote ✔️ Championing policies to ensure elections are fair, secure, and respect State sovereignty As RM Rep. Rodney Davis highlights, that’s our Commitment to America.
ICYMI: Last week, RM Rep. Rodney Davis spoke on the House floor highlighting numerous policy concerns with House Democrats’ Presidential Election Reform Act. Check out the video below where he highlights one of several reasons: ⬇️
ICYMI, during last week’s subcommittee hearing on misinformation, Congressman Bryan Steil pointed out you don’t need to look far for examples. The latest? The Biden Administration's new attempt to redefine “recession.”

ICYMI, Ranking Member Rep. Rodney Davis joined The Sean Hannity Show to discuss the unraveling of the 1/6 Committee’s credibility. Give it a listen 🎙
Actions speak louder than words. As a reminder, Congressman Bennie G. Thompson voted to object to the results of the 2004 election.
RM Rep. Rodney Davis commends Florida & Governor Ron DeSantis for their proactive approach to election integrity, including improving list maintenance, requiring voter ID, banning Zuckerbucks, and establishing the Office of Election Crimes and Security.
Congressman Bryan Steil highlights how Florida and Georgia are proof that federalism works. Their reforms protect the ballot box & have increased turnout. #HR1 would nationalize our elections and unconstitutionally take power away from States.
Next week the House will vote to allow staff to unionize. Here’s why that’s a bad idea: ⬇️⬇️⬇️
After 1/6, members stood w/ our Capitol Police - lining the tunnel to the Capitol with words of support, their offices with signs of appreciation, bringing them lunch/ breakfast in the days following. Thank you again to all the officers for their service that day and every day. A year later, Republicans cont to honor our Capitol Police officers by fighting for real change within the leadership that left the Capitol so unprepared that day. Unfortunately, there’s been too few changes to our security & not enough accountability from those in charge. Read Ranking Member Rep. Rodney Davis's full memo on what needs to be done to protect our officers and ensure we never have a breach of the Capitol like we saw a year ago today. https://mailchi.mp/c1f2917885a5/house-admin-republicans-update-13412114
📺 DC is set to fully reopen tomorrow. Yet, the House remains closed with no plan to reopen. Capitol tours still banned, visitors still severely restricted, members still proxy voting, & hearing rooms remain closed. RM Rep. Rodney Davis calls on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to open the House.

Davis Floor Remarks: "A House Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand"
Ranking Member Rodney Davis quotes Abraham Lincoln on the House floor during debate on removing Confederate statues from the U.S. Capitol. “A house divided against itself cannot stand."
Davis Cautions Against States Not Ready to Expand Vote By Mail
ICYMI: "I support states that are taking steps to increase their capacity for mail-in voting. But to presume that every state should, or even can, dramatically increase this capacity is ridiculous." Ranking Member Rodney Davis
“If there’s one job that we as Congress should do, and do well, it’s to help Americans recover from a disaster that they didn’t ask for.” Our top Republican Rep. Rodney Davis urged his colleagues from the House Floor to pass vital #COVID2019 aid. He also thanked the dedicated employees who keep the House Chamber clean and operational, so that the House of Representatives can safely vote on this important legislation to help all Americans.
LIVE: Committee on House Administration's top Republican and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Elections, U.S. Representative Rodney Davis (IL-13) is hosting a congressional listening session in Springfield, IL, to discuss the state's recent election administrative errors with Automatic Voter Registration - including erroneously registering over 500 noncitizens, 16-year-olds, and cancelling formerly incarcerated registrations.
Democrats aren’t celebrating the historic voter turnout from the 2018 midterm elections - the highest in 4 decades, especially among minority voters. We should celebrate the good work the Voting Rights Act is doing! H.R. 4 that will be voted on in the House today is NOT reauthorizing the Voting Rights Act - VRA is still protecting voters today! H.R. 4 is the Democrats giving more power to the federal government.
Chairman Harper and Ranking Member Brady speak on behalf of the Congressional Accountability Act Reform measures
With a unanimous vote, the House passed H.R. 4924 and H.Res. 724, Congressional Accountability Act Reform measures. These measures are the result of a bipartisan and comprehensive review of the training, policies, and mechanisms related to harassment and discrimination. Chairman Gregg Harper and Ranking Member Robert Brady spoke in support of these measures on the House Floor.

That's how much money Democrats' campaigns would get if this so-called "voting rights" bill was signed into law.
No wonder they're so desperate to get rid of the filibuster to pass it.
Follow the money.

Yet, today's bill by House Democrats guts states' voter ID laws.
Because power and control
It's about power, not about voting rights
Democrats are manufacturing a “voting rights” crisis in order to exert more control from Washington, DC.
Interesting...
Let's recap what Democrats' so-called "voting rights" legislation does:
1. White heavy check mark Nationalizes elections
2. Money bag Gives millions to Democrats' campaigns
3. White heavy check mark Alters the current bipartisan makeup to weaponize the FEC
4. White heavy check mark Bans voter ID
5. White heavy check mark Puts unelected DOJ bureaucrats in charge of election laws

A lot of disinformation being pushed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi & others so posting the full response when our committee was denied access to 1/6 records. Their letter says "we are unable to comply" & after nearly a year of trying, we still haven't received anything from the SAA or CAO.
THANK YOU to the men and women in blue.

This committee should immediately hold oversight hearings on this report, which is not in line with the USCP IG’s most recent report and testimony.
USCP is down 140 officers & still 400 below authorized levels, IG has said only 30 of his 104 recs have been implemented, of the 200 changes USCP has claimed only 61 have documentation, & AOC says infrastructure upgrades are still in the design phase.
