Who benefits most from Biden's job-destroying $3.5 trillion tax-and-spending spree?China, OPEC, Mexico, Russia...Not U.S. workers.The Republican National Committee (RNC) released a new ad on October 19th exposing Democrats' plan to silence parents who want a say in their kids' education. As Democrats continue to prioritize their political agenda over students, Republicans continue to fight for parents' right to oversee their children's education. The RNC's new ad comes on the heels of Biden's unprecedented decision to politicize the DOJ and FBI to target parents who question their children's curriculum - a decision made less than a week after Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe claimed that parents shouldn't be "telling schools what they should teach." After over a year of prolonged remote learning and anti-science mask mandates, coupled with the latest attacks from Biden and Democrats on parents, it is no wonder that education has become the leading issue in the upcoming gubernatorial elections. "Democrats want to control our children's education and silence parents who have an opinion," said RNC Chairman Ronna McDaniel. "The American people know the truth - parents, not unions or bureaucrats, are best equipped to oversee their children's education."

Democrats' Freedom to "Cheat" Act
- Senate Democrats' new election bill is no compromise - it's yet another attempt to take over state elections from the far-left.
- With H.R. 1/S.1 failing, Democrats are attempting to rebrand their failed bill as the "Freedom to Vote Act." It should really be known as the Freedom to "Cheat" Act.
- The Freedom to "Cheat" Act could come up for a vote in the Senate as early as Wednesday.
- Democrats claim that their bill is about safeguarding democracy, but it's really a radical power grab over state-run elections. If passed, the bill would:
-
Thwart election integrity, manipulate state redistricting decisions, and slant elections to help Democrats win.
-
Eviscerate commonsense state voter ID laws, which 35 states have passed.
- Eliminate more secure voter ID requirements, replacing them with a process ripe for fraud, where no ID is presented, and a third person only attests that a voter is who they claim to be.
-
Force 37 states to adopt automatic voter registration on short notice, even though past attempt to implement automatic voter registration have led to illegal immigrants being registered and massive registration errors.
- Lead to "large numbers of ineligible voters" being registered, including non-citizens.
- The RNC recently filed a lawsuit in Vermont to stop non-citizens from voting.
-
Force 29 states to adopt same-day voter registration.
- Combined with eviscerating voter ID laws, this would make it easier to commit voter fraud with little time to verify a person's eligibility.
-
Force states to let violent felons vote in federal elections as soon as they are out of prison - even if they have not completed all terms of their sentence, like probation or parole - an unconstitutional mandate.
- Strip individual states of the ability to draw their Congressional districts as they see fit, with the federal government instead imposing mandates for how districts are drawn.
- Gift taxpayer dollars to the campaigns of career politicians.
- The bill includes nearly the same campaign funding scheme from H.R. 1, where taxpayers would provide up to a 600% match for political donations under $200.
- By a wide margin, Americans support common sense reforms to secure elections.
-
By a 33 point margin, Americans believe that voting in their area is "easy" and want the main objective of any reforms to focus on making sure elections are "fair and free of voter fraud."
- Support for voter ID laws has risen 13% among Black Americans and stands at 81% among all voters.
-
68% of voters believe that state legislatures should decide the voting rules and regulations for their state, not the federal government.
- 87% of voters are against ballot harvesting and 71% of voters believe ballots should not be accepted after Election Day.
- Americans see through Democrats' election lies and Congress should immediately reject the far-left's Freedom To "Cheat" Act.
