Mail-In Voting Under Attack

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. BYNUM. Mr. Speaker, mail-in voting, a system that has allowed millions of Americans to make their voices heard, is under attack.

Over 99 percent of voting Oregonians cast their ballots by mail. These are deployed servicemembers, parents working to feed their families, and young Americans who are just trying to get by.

Our own President voted by mail just this month, yet he wants to take away that same right from millions of Americans.

President Trump isn't concerned about ensuring a fair and free election, in my opinion. He is scared that the American people will see right through him, scared that families and seniors and students are going to reject his foolishness at the ballot box.

Mr. Speaker, grocery prices are skyrocketing, and gas prices are out of control. Americans cannot afford to live under Trump's economy, and he knows it.

The simple truth is that Americans have a voice, and the President doesn't want them to use it. Mr. Speaker, we must wake up.
