H.R. 1 and voting measures recently passed in states - on "The Debrief"

In the wake of the so-called "Big Lie" that the election was rigged, Donald Trump actually beat Joe Biden and was fraudulently denied a second term, Republican governors and GOP-controlled state legislatures have been changing voting laws in several states.
Last week, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed into law sweeping changes to the state's voting procedures. The legislation, which passed with only Republican support, mandates photo ID for mail-in ballots, trims the window for requesting an absentee ballot and places new restrictions on ballot drop boxes, among other provisions. Iowa, too, adopted more restrictive voting laws earlier this month. Instead of 29 days to vote early in person, voters will now have 20 days, and polls will close an hour earlier.More Related News
