Here are some excerpts from the bill:

Titled, “The Uniform State American Confidence in Elections (ACE) Act,” the legislative tool kit provides 13 recommended state laws “to increase voters’ confidence and promote election integrity.” Many of the policies are modeled after the ACE Act, a federal measure containing similar provisions that House Republicans introduced last year. The bill was passed by the Committee on House Administration in July and is awaiting a full House floor vote.

Included in the Uniform State ACE Act are policies long-supported by election integrity activists, including voter ID and proof of residency requirements for individuals voting in person or by mail. Despite Democrats’ claims that ID requirements suppress non-white voters, the vast majority of U.S. voters — including those who are black and Hispanic — support such election safeguards. Several courts have also recently shot down Democrat-backed lawsuits alleging voter-ID laws “suppress” voters.

Another policy suggested is a mandate to regularly remove ineligible voters from state voter rolls. This would include removing any non-citizens on the list. …

Also included in the Uniform State ACE Act is a recommendation that states prohibit private funding of elections [such as “Zuckbucks”].

These things should be no-brainers for states to pass. They are simply obvious basic safeguards. But as I said, only GOP-controlled states will pass them, and the control has to be solid.

You may recall that, the next time the Democrats get control of the federal government, they are planning to pass HR1 or its equivalent, a federal uniform voting act that will make it impossible for states to employ these safeguards of voting security. This is an enormously important part of the Democrats’ platform, one of which many people are unaware. If the Democrats win both houses of Congress and the presidency, many more people will become aware, but it will probably be too late.
