Here are the 7 ways HR1 – the Dem voting rights bill — is unconstitutional

And they want to get something passed in time for the 2022 elections:

Schumer now saying that they want to get voting rights bill done "in time for the 2022 elections."

What Schumer didn't promise: a vote (which would fail) before Christmas

With Manchin/Sinema opposed to changing rules, there's no path to getting bill done even next year

Good luck with that:

Not only does a voting rights bill still have no chance if Manchin/Sinema remain opposed to filibuster changes, but any legislation that passed now (or frankly, even months ago) would have no chance of being implemented in time for the 2022 midterms https://t.co/22eRePpBAZ https://t.co/AWPfHkcsGq

We would like to point out that HR1 is not only a bad bill, but unconstitutional as well. Here’s conservative attorney Gabriel Malor with the full list:

Since Democrats want to talk about their voting rights bill, a reminder that much of HR1 is unconstitutional. A list:

(1) Requiring websites/media to keep logs of ads about politics for disclosure (violates 1A);

(2) Requiring disclosure of donors to private advocacy groups (violates 1A);
(3) Imposing redistricting commissions (violates anti-commandeering doctrine);
(4) Mandating manner of presidential elections (violates Art. II, sec. 1);

(5) Requiring a code of conduct for SCOTUS justices (violates sep. of powers);
(6) Requiring POTUS candidates to release tax returns (violates Art. II, sec. 1);
(7) Overturning Citizens United (violates 1A)

Of note, it doesn’t even do what Dems are most afraid of:

And none of the bill actually addresses the true danger in elections going forward: a Trumpian power play where state-level bad actors refuse to acknowledge the actual vote outcome and prevent the certification of electoral votes in order to seat a losing candidate.
