Having secured United States Senate majority with the appointment of Georgia State Representatives Thomas Jonathan “Jon” Ossoff and Raphael Gamaliel Warnock by virtue of the January 5th, 2021 runoff elections; John Peter Spyros Sarbanes, Democratic National Committee (DNC) member of Maryland’s 3rd congressional district, reintroduces 791 page House Resolution 1 (H.R. 1) to guarantee the DNC dominion over the execution of policy governing the voter registration process in future electoral cycles.
Formally titled as the “For the People Act of 2021,” H.R. 1 was a legislative provision that initially appeared in the House Chamber on January 3, 2019, as a 706 page partisan decree designed “to expand Americans access to the ballot box, reduce the influence of big money in politics, and strengthen ethics rules for public servants,” however, the measure failed to garner support from members of the Republican Caucus, who, at the time of its declaration, possessed senatorial authority, thereby precluding its amendment into the Federal Register.
A written summation of this controversial resolution detailed in the following synopsis with portions of each section emphasized for the purpose of clarification:
1) Enhanced online voter registration capability with the introduction of a government sanctioned electronically transcribed signature submission and verification apparatus. Executed in compliance with the institution of a federal mandate designed to ensure the availability of a viable internet service connection for the express purpose of maintaining public accessibility to the election process
It’s important to note that the Federal Government’s use of technology in the electoral process – specifically with regard to the prospect of a nationally coordinated system of online-based communication – is inherently susceptible to intrusion from a multitudinous array of nefarious ensembles (decentralized international hacktivist collectives, foreign government intelligence operatives, rogue domestic cybersecurity specialists, et al), a fact evidenced with the infiltration of internal email correspondence relays within the U.S. Treasury and Commerce departments (Link).
Subtitle A—Voter Registration Modernization
SEC. 1000A. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the “Voter Registration Modernization Act of 2021”.
PART 1—PROMOTING INTERNET REGISTRATION
SEC. 1001. REQUIRING AVAILABILITY OF INTERNET FOR VOTER REGISTRATION.
(a) Requiring Availability Of Internet For Registration.—The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (52 U.S.C. 20501 et seq.¹) is amended by inserting after section 6 the following new section:
“SEC. 6A. INTERNET REGISTRATION.
“(a) Requiring Availability Of Internet For Online Registration.—
“(1) AVAILABILITY OF ONLINE REGISTRATION AND CORRECTION OF EXISTING REGISTRATION INFORMATION.—Each State, acting through the chief State election official, shall ensure that the following services are available to the public at any time on the official public websites of the appropriate State and local election officials in the State, in the same manner and subject to the same terms and conditions as the services provided by voter registration agencies under section 7(a)²:
“(A) Online application for voter registration.
2) Rescission of the individual requirement to provide a complete SSN (Social Security Number) for the purpose of voter registration on the basis that stipulations present within such mandates are designed to discriminate against racial and ethnic minorities
SEC. 1005. PROHIBITING STATE FROM REQUIRING APPLICANTS TO PROVIDE MORE THAN LAST 4 DIGITS OF SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.
(a) FORM INCLUDED WITH APPLICATION FOR MOTOR VEHICLE DRIVER’S LICENSE.—Section 5(c)(2)(B)(ii) of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 is amended by striking the semicolon at the end and inserting the following: “, and to the extent that the application requires the applicant to provide a Social Security number, may not require the applicant to provide more than the last 4 digits of such number;”.
(b) NATIONAL MAIL VOTER REGISTRATION FORM.—Section 9(b)(1) of such Act (52 U.S.C. 20508(b)(1)) is amended by striking the semicolon at the end and inserting the following: “, and to the extent that the form requires the applicant to provide a Social Security number, the form may not require the applicant to provide more than the last 4 digits of such number;”.
3) The actualization of a nationwide “Motor Voter” registration apparatus designed to inflate the existing alphanumeric registry of the electorate
The utilization of this methodology being actively employed in the states of California and Nevada where undocumented immigrants are routinely incorporated into the electorate through the acquisition of a valid state-issued driver’s license. In California specifically, by virtue of the New Motor Voter Act of 2015³, voter registration benefits are routinely afforded to foreign nationals on the basis of said party’s claim of lawful permanent residency, with no questions asked and no investigations being conducted by state government agencies to effectively corroborate such assertions (Link).
PART 2—AUTOMATIC VOTER REGISTRATION
SEC. 1011. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.
(a) SHORT TITLE.—This part may be cited as the “Automatic Voter Registration Act of 2021”.
(b) FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.—
(1) FINDINGS.—Congress finds that—
(A) the right to vote is a fundamental right of citizens of the United States;
(B) it is the responsibility of the State and Federal Governments to ensure that every eligible citizen is registered to vote;
(C) existing voter registration systems can be inaccurate, costly, inaccessible and confusing, with damaging effects on voter participation in elections for Federal office and disproportionate impacts on young people, persons with disabilities, and racial and ethnic minorities; and
(D) voter registration systems must be updated with 21st Century technologies and procedures to maintain their security.
(2) PURPOSE.—It is the purpose of this part—
(A) to establish that it is the responsibility of government at every level to ensure that all eligible citizens are registered to vote in elections for Federal office;
(B) to enable the State and Federal Governments to register all eligible citizens to vote with accurate, cost-efficient, and up-to-date procedures;
(C) to modernize voter registration and list maintenance procedures with electronic and Internet capabilities; and
(D) to protect and enhance the integrity, accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility of the electoral process for all eligible citizens.
SEC. 1012. AUTOMATIC REGISTRATION OF ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS.
(a) REQUIRING STATES TO ESTABLISH AND OPERATE AUTOMATIC REGISTRATION SYSTEM.—
(1) IN GENERAL.—The chief State election official of each State shall establish and operate a system of automatic registration for the registration of eligible individuals to vote for elections for Federal office in the State, in accordance with the provisions of this part.
(2) DEFINITION.—The term “automatic registration” means a system that registers an individual to vote in elections for Federal office in a State, if eligible, by electronically transferring the information necessary for registration from government agencies to election officials of the State so that, unless the individual affirmatively declines to be registered, the individual will be registered to vote in such elections.
4) Alteration of eligibility requirements pursuant to one’s chronological age, specifically with regard to guidelines implemented in prior electoral cycles that restricted an individual’s ability to participate in the voting process if they were under the age of 18 years
(d) TREATMENT OF INDIVIDUALS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE.—A State may not refuse to treat an individual as an eligible individual for purposes of this part on the grounds that the individual is less than 18 years of age at the time a contributing agency receives information with respect to the individual, so long as the individual is at least 16 years of age at such time. Nothing in the previous sentence may be construed to require a State to permit an individual who is under 18 years of age at the time of an election for Federal office to vote in the election.
On January 3rd of 2019, when this measure was initially entered into the Congressional Record, the above section was entitled, “Part 10—VOTER REGISTRATION OF MINORS,” with the underlying use of Sec. 1094. ACCEPTANCE OF VOTER REGISTRATION APPLICATIONS FROM INDIVIDUALS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE having also been appended to the bill
5) Streamlined voter registrative mandate with the institution of an automatic and same day registration capability at the national level
PART 3—SAME DAY VOTER REGISTRATION⁴
SEC. 1031. SAME DAY REGISTRATION.
(a) IN GENERAL.—Title III⁵ of the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002 (52 U.S.C. 21081 et seq.) is amended—
(1) by redesignating sections 304 and 305 as sections 305 and 306; and
(2) by inserting after section 303 the following new section:
“SEC. 304. SAME DAY REGISTRATION.
“(a) IN GENERAL.—
“(1) REGISTRATION.—Each State shall permit any eligible individual on the day of a Federal election and on any day when voting, including early voting, is permitted for a Federal election—
“(A) to register to vote in such election at the polling place using a form that meets the requirements under section 9(b) of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (or, if the individual is already registered to vote, to revise any of the individual’s voter registration information); and
“(B) to cast a vote in such election.
6) Prohibits efforts by independent election oversight committees to maintain ballot integrity across the whole of America
Subtitle C—Prohibiting Voter Caging⁶
“(c) REQUIREMENTS FOR CHALLENGES BY PERSONS OTHER THAN ELECTION OFFICIALS.—
“(1) REQUIREMENTS FOR CHALLENGES.—No person, other than a State or local election official, shall submit a formal challenge to an individual’s eligibility to register to vote in an election for Federal office or to vote in an election for Federal office unless that challenge is supported by personal knowledge regarding the grounds for ineligibility which is—
“(A) documented in writing; and “(B) subject to an oath or attestation under penalty of perjury that the challenger has a good faith factual basis to believe that the individual who is the subject of the challenge is ineligible to register to vote or vote in that election, except a challenge which is based on the race, ethnicity, or national origin of the individual who is the subject of the challenge may not be considered to have a good faith factual basis for purposes of this paragraph.
“(2) PROHIBITION ON CHALLENGES ON OR NEAR DATE OF ELECTION.—No person, other than a State or local election official, shall be permitted—
“(A) to challenge an individual’s eligibility to vote in an election for Federal office on Election Day, or
“(B) to challenge an individual’s eligibility to register to vote in an election for Federal office or to vote in an election for Federal office less than 10 days before the election unless the individual registered to vote less than 20 days before the election.
7) Authorizes the inclusion of convicted felons (individuals sentenced in a state penitentiary for federal crimes as compiled from Title 18 and Title 26 of the United States Legal Code⁷) – a seemingly inexhaustible inventory consisting of those incarcerated for the crimes of capital murder, child molestation, sexual assault, and forcible rape – into the national voter registry
Utilization of the terms, ‘disenfranchisement,’ and ‘disproportionate,’ when referring to the impacts of vote-based restrictions against habitually marginalized segments of the civilian population recognized as yet another ploy by the political establishment to cultivate an atmosphere of division within the electorate at the communal level with the ‘restoration of voting privileges’ hinging on the acquiescence of those states outlined within the contents of the provision to formally ratify the partisan directive into their respective constitutional ledgers. The failure of elected officials occupying positions of authority within each of the aforementioned geographical precincts to acknowledge the Democratic National Committee sponsored mandate as a binding legal precedent equated with the violation of an individual’s civil liberties on the basis of nationality, ethnic predisposition, and/ or ancestral lineage.
NOTE: The absence of a concise delineation of the enumerated listing of felonies appearing in both Title 16 and 28 of the United States Legislative Code (U.S.C. Title 18—CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURES • Part 1—CRIMES (§§ 1 – 2725) and U.S.C. Title 26—INTERNAL REVENUE CODE • Subtitle F—Procedure and Administration, Chapter 75—CRIMES, OTHER OFFENSES, AND FORFEITURES Subchapters A and B (§§ 7201 – 7241)) – the perpetrators of which would otherwise merit exclusion from the electoral process – lends credence to the notion that the application of poll-oriented constraints for the entirety of the federal prison population, regardless of the nature of the crime having been committed, have been vacated.
Subtitle E—Democracy Restoration
SEC. 1401. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the “Democracy Restoration Act of 2021”.
(8) An estimated 5,200,000 citizens of the United States, or about 1 in 44 adults in the United States, currently cannot vote as a result of a felony conviction. Of the 5,200,000 citizens barred from voting, only 24 percent are in prison. By contrast, 75 percent of the disenfranchised reside in their communities while on probation or parole or after having completed their sentences. Approximately 2,200,000 citizens who have completed their sentences remain disenfranchised due to restrictive State laws. In at least 6 States—Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Virginia— more than 5 percent of the total voting-age population is disenfranchised.
(10) State disenfranchisement laws disproportionately impact racial and ethnic minorities. More than 6 percent of the African-American voting-age population, or 1,800,000 African Americans, are disenfranchised. Currently, 1 of every 16 voting-age African Americans are rendered unable to vote because of felony disenfranchisement, which is a rate more than 3.7 times greater than non-African Americans. Over 6 percent of African-American adults are disenfranchised whereas only 1.7 percent of non-African Americans are. In 7 States (Alabama, 16 percent; Florida, 15 percent; Kentucky, 15 percent; Mississippi, 16 percent; Tennessee, 21 percent; Virginia, 16 percent; and Wyoming, 36 percent), more than 1 in 7 African Americans are unable to vote because of prior convictions, twice the national average for African Americans.
(11) Latino citizens are disproportionately disenfranchised based upon their disproportionate representation in the criminal justice system. In recent years, Latinos have been imprisoned at 13 times the rate of Whites. More than 2 percent of the voting-age Latino population, or 560,000 Latinos, are disenfranchised due to a felony conviction. In 16 states Latinos are disenfranchised at a higher rate than the general population. In 11 states 4 percent or more of Latino adults are disenfranchised due to a felony conviction (Alabama, 4 percent; Arizona, 7 percent; Arkansas, 4 percent; Idaho, 4 percent; Iowa, 4 percent; Kentucky, 6 percent; Minnesota, 4 percent; Mississippi, 5 percent; Nebraska, 6 percent; Tennessee, 11 percent, Wyoming, 4 percent), twice the national average for Latinos.
This notion of deliberacy on the part of said states to deny prospective applicants their ‘constitutional’ right to participate in the Federal elections process based on their status as ethnic minorities and the legacy of institutional racism in the criminal justice system is refuted by virtue of the aforementioned voting bloc’s penchant to engage in illegal activity (Link).
SEC. 1405. NOTIFICATION OF RESTORATION OF VOTING RIGHTS.
(a) STATE NOTIFICATION.—
(1) NOTIFICATION.—On the date determined under paragraph (2), each State shall notify in writing any individual who has been convicted of a criminal offense under the law of that State that such individual has the right to vote in an election for Federal office pursuant to the Democracy Restoration Act of 2021 and may register to vote in any such election and provide such individual with any materials that are necessary to register to vote in any such election.
8) Appends retroactive extensions to the timetable of early voting procedures such that the time allotted for individuals to participate in the electoral process is limited only by the prospect of a state or municipality’s interpretation of regulatory protocol
Note that the rule’s specification in the sections appearing below the first declaration references the conceptualization of an ‘early voting period’ as detailed in antecedent iterations of the amended decree with the mention of state sanctioned electoral proceedings commencing 15 days prior to the general election, with each of the states being given a limitless degree of discretion in their adjustment of schedule for the preliminary selections process. This portion of the legislative proposal underlined for the purpose of emphasizing its significance.
“SEC. 306. EARLY VOTING.
“(a) REQUIRING VOTING PRIOR TO DATE OF ELECTION.—
IN GENERAL.—Each State shall allow individuals to vote in an election for Federal office during an early voting period which occurs prior to the date of the election, in the same manner as voting is allowed on such date.
“(2) LENGTH OF PERIOD.—The early voting period required under this subsection with respect to an election shall consist of a period of consecutive days (including weekends) which begins on the 15th day before the date of the election (or, at the option of the State, on a day prior to the 15th day before the date of the election) and ends on the date of the election.
9) Facilitates the creation of a nationwide vote-by mail absentee ballot system, formally authorizes the imposition of extrajudicially sanctioned interdictions pursuant to the requirement of a valid form of personal identification as a precondition in the acquisition of election-related materials, and removes restrictions governing a document’s proof of authenticity with independently verified notarization and/ or witness signature corroboration being excised from the conventional standard
Subtitle I—Voting by Mail
“SEC. 307. PROMOTING ABILITY OF VOTERS TO VOTE BY MAIL.
“(a) UNIFORM AVAILABILITY OF ABSENTEE VOTING TO ALL VOTERS.—
“(1) IN GENERAL.—If an individual in a State is eligible to cast a vote in an election for Federal office, the State may not impose any additional conditions or requirements on the eligibility of the individual to cast the vote in such election by absentee ballot by mail.
“(2) ADMINISTRATION OF VOTING BY MAIL.—
“(A) PROHIBITING IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENT AS CONDITION OF OBTAINING BALLOT.—A State may not require an individual to provide any form of identification as a condition of obtaining an absentee ballot, except that nothing in this paragraph may be construed to prevent a State from requiring a signature of the individual or similar affirmation as a condition of obtaining an absentee ballot.
“(B) PROHIBITING REQUIREMENT TO PROVIDE NOTARIZATION OR WITNESS SIGNATURE AS CONDITION OF OBTAINING OR CASTING BALLOT.—A State may not require notarization or witness signature or other formal authentication (other than voter attestation) as a condition of obtaining or casting an absentee ballot.
“(2) PERMITTING VOTERS TO DESIGNATE OTHER PERSON TO RETURN BALLOT.—The State—
“(A) shall permit a voter to designate any person to return a voted and sealed absentee ballot to the post office, a ballot drop-off location, tribally designated building, or election office so long as the person designated to return the ballot does not receive any form of compensation based on the number of ballots that the person has returned and no individual, group, or organization provides compensation on this basis; and
“(B) may not put any limit on how many voted and sealed absentee ballots any designated person can return to the post office, a ballot drop off location, tribally designated building, or election office.
10) Provides for the replacement of valid forms of personal identification necessary to participate in the electoral process in favor of the presentation of a sworn written affidavit affirming one’s identity – and thereby voting eligibility – to appropriate local or state election officials under penalty of law
The enforcement of this caveat rendered null and void by the prohibition of a witness signature as detailed in subparagraph (B) PROHIBITING REQUIREMENT TO PROVIDE NOTARIZATION OR WITNESS SIGNATURE AS CONDITION OF OBTAINING OR CASTING BALLOT of subsection (2) ADMINISTRATION OF VOTING BY MAIL.
SEC. 1903. PERMITTING USE OF SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT TO MEET IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR VOTING.
(a) PERMITTING USE OF STATEMENT.—Title III of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (52 U.S.C. 21081 et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 303 the following new section:
“SEC. 303A. PERMITTING USE OF SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT TO MEET IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS.
“(a) USE OF STATEMENT.—
“(1) IN GENERAL.—Except as provided in subsection (c), if a State has in effect a requirement that an individual present identification as a condition of receiving and casting a ballot in an election for Federal office, the State shall permit the individual to meet the requirement—
“(A) in the case of an individual who desires to vote in person, by presenting the appropriate State or local election official with a sworn written statement, signed by the individual under penalty of perjury, attesting to the individual’s identity and attesting that the individual is eligible to vote in the election; or
“(B) in the case of an individual who desires to vote by mail, by submitting with the ballot the statement described in subparagraph (A).
11) Codifies an organized ballot harvesting operation into existence at the domestic level with the retraction of legislative caveats that would otherwise preclude the recognition of documents from third party intermediaries by local and state polling representatives
SEC. 1506. PAPER BALLOT PRINTING REQUIREMENTS.
“(iii) MANDATORY AVAILABILITY OF 18 PAPER BALLOTS AT POLLING PLACES USING GRANDFATHERED PRINTERS AND SYSTEMS.—
“(I) REQUIRING BALLOTS TO BE OFFERED AND PROVIDED.—The appropriate election official at each polling place that uses a printer or system described in clause (ii)(I) for the administration of elections for Federal office shall offer each individual who is eligible to cast a vote in the election at the polling place the opportunity to cast the vote using a blank pre-printed paper ballot which the individual may mark by hand and which is not produced by the direct recording electronic voting machine or other such system. The official shall provide the individual with the ballot and the supplies necessary to mark the ballot, and shall ensure (to the greatest extent practicable) that the waiting period for the individual to cast a vote is the lesser of 30 minutes or the average waiting period for an individual who does not agree to cast the vote using such a paper ballot under this clause.
“(II) TREATMENT OF BALLOT.— Any paper ballot which is cast by an individual under this clause shall be counted and otherwise treated as a regular ballot for all purposes (including by incorporating it into the final unofficial vote count (as defined by the State) for the precinct) and not as a provisional ballot, unless the individual casting the ballot would have otherwise been required to cast a provisional ballot.
“(III) POSTING OF NOTICE.— The appropriate election official shall ensure there is prominently displayed at each polling place a notice that describes the obligation of the official to offer individuals the opportunity to cast votes using a pre-printed blank paper ballot.
12) Establishes the framework necessary to reclassify the nation’s capital, Washington’s District of Columbia (D.C.), as well as the United States territory of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, as the 51st and 52nd states of the union respectively, with future considerations being afforded to the residents of the following territorial municipalities: American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the United States Virgin Islands
The District of Columbia’s admission into the union identified as yet another ploy devised by the Democratic National Committee to cement their claims of regency over the American electoral process in the modern era, with residents of the nation’s capital having pledged their support for Joseph “Joe” Robinette Biden Jr., the presidential challenger in the 2020 general election, by an overwhelming statistical margin.
Subtitle C—Findings Relating to District of Columbia Statehood
SEC. 2201. FINDINGS RELATING TO DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA STATEHOOD.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The 705,000 District of Columbia residents deserve voting representation in Congress and local self-government, which only statehood can provide.
(2) The United States is the only democratic country that denies both voting representation in the national legislature and local self-government to the residents of its Nation’s capital.
(3) There are no constitutional, historical, fiscal, or economic reasons why the Americans who live in the District of Columbia should not be granted statehood.
Subtitle D—Territorial Voting Rights
SEC. 2301. FINDINGS RELATING TO TERRITORIAL VOTING RIGHTS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The right to vote is one of the most powerful instruments residents of the territories of the United States have to ensure that their voices are heard.
(2) These Americans have played an important part in the American democracy for more than 120 years.
(3) Political participation and the right to vote are among the highest concerns of territorial residents in part because they were not always afforded these rights.
13) Facilitates the establishment of an independently accredited redistricting commission under the authority of Congress as a means of ensuring the adequate representation of its constituents based on the following demographically-inspired factors: ethnic minority status, nationality, race, economic standing, and gender identity
Subtitle E—Redistricting Reform
SEC. 2400. SHORT TITLE; FINDING OF CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY.
(a) SHORT TITLE.—This subtitle may be cited as the “Redistricting Reform Act of 2021”.
(b) FINDING OF CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY.—
Congress finds that it has the authority to establish the terms and conditions States must follow in carrying out congressional redistricting after an apportionment of Members of the House of Representatives because—
(1) the authority granted to Congress under article I, section 4 of the Constitution of the United States gives Congress the power to enact laws governing the time, place, and manner of elections for Members of the House of Representatives; and
(2) the authority granted to Congress under section 5 of the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution gives Congress the power to enact laws to enforce section 2 of such amendment, which requires Representatives to be apportioned among the several States according to their number.
PART 2—INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING COMMISSIONS
SEC. 2411. INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING COMMISSION.
(a) APPOINTMENT OF MEMBERS.—
(B) ENSURING DIVERSITY.—In appointing the 9 members pursuant to subparagraph (B) paragraph (1), as well as in designating alternates pursuant to subparagraph (B) of paragraph (3) and in appointing alternates to fill 4 vacancies pursuant to subparagraph (B) of paragraph (4), the first members of the independent redistricting commission shall ensure that the membership is representative of the demographic groups (including racial, ethnic, economic, and gender) and geographic regions of the State, and provides racial, ethnic, and language minorities protected under the Voting Rights Act of 1965 with a meaningful opportunity to participate in the development of the State’s redistricting plan.
14) Provides for the levying of civil penalties pursuant to the manufacture, or dissemination thereof, of ‘patently false information’ as it pertains to the electoral process
By virtue of the “Deceptive Practices and Voter Intimidation Prevention Act of 2021,” which is outlined in the contents of ‘Subtitle D—Prohibiting Deceptive Practices and Preventing Voter Intimidation SEC. 1301. SHORT TITLE.,’ individuals deemed to be in violation of clause stipulations present within the memorandum are subject to punitive fines of up to $100,000 USD (United States Dollars), as well as the possibility of incarceration in a federal penitentiary for a period of 5 years.
Subtitle D—Prohibiting Deceptive Practices and Preventing Voter Intimidation
SEC. 1301. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the ‘‘Deceptive Practices and Voter Intimidation Prevention Act of 2021’’.
SEC. 1302. PROHIBITION ON DECEPTIVE PRACTICES IN FEDERAL ELECTIONS.
‘‘(b) DECEPTIVE ACTS.—
‘‘(1) FALSE STATEMENTS REGARDING FEDERAL ELECTIONS.—
‘‘(A) PROHIBITION.—It shall be unlawful for any person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, within 60 days before an election described in subsection (e), by any means, including by means of written, electronic, or telephonic communications, to communicate or cause to be communicated information described in subparagraph (B), or produce information described in subparagraph (B) with the intent that such information be communicated, if such person—
‘‘(i) knows such information to be materially false; and
‘‘(ii) has the intent to mislead voters, or the intent to impede or prevent another person from exercising the right to vote in an election described in subsection (e).
‘‘(B) INFORMATION DESCRIBED.—Information is described in this subparagraph if such information is regarding—
‘‘(i) the time or place of holding any election described in subsection (e); or
‘‘(ii) the qualifications for or restrictions on voter eligibility for any such election, including—
‘‘(I) any criminal penalties associated with voting in any such election; or
‘‘(II) information regarding a voter’s registration status or eligibility.
‘‘(2) PENALTY.—Any person who violates paragraph (1) shall be fined not more than $100,000, imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or both.
CONCLUSION: H.R. (House Resolution) 1, also known as the ‘For the People Act of 2021,’ is, in effect, a partisan declaration of electoral supremacy, or what could be more aptly characterized as the ominous presage of a permanent system of one-party authoritarianism in the United States.

² Refers to SEC. 7. VOTER REGISTRATION AGENCIES and the designation thereof, specifically as it pertains to the following subsection:
(a) DESIGNATION.—(1) Each State shall designate agencies for the registration of voters in elections for Federal office.
³ Enacted into law on October of 2015, the New Motor Voter Act is a statute requiring the Department of Motor Vehicles to forward records for all eligible applicants for driver’s licenses to the acting Secretary of State’s office for registration solely on the basis of a prospective individual’s claim of lawful permanent residency
⁴ Automatic Voter Registration (AVR) is a transformative electoral reform proposal allowing for the automated registration of prospective voters, a process contingent on the submission of information to federally subsidized agencies – specifically the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles), as well as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and other entitlement benefits/ economic subsistence packages (Supplemental Security Income, or SSI; Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF; Housing Choice Voucher Initiative, also known as Section 8 or Tenant Based Rental Assistance; Academic Pell Grants, et al) requiring manual application – whereby an individual’s personal records are utilized as a means of bolstering the electorate in terms of its aggregate number. As of December 23, 2020, twenty states, as well the District of Columbia, have adopted AVR as their default method of enrollment. The areas mentioned in the context of the above statement are as follows:
Alaska
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Georgia
Illinois
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
Michigan
Nevada
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
Oregon
Rhode Island
Vermont
Virginia
Washington
West Virginia
The ratification of such measures at the national level heralding the possibility of an additional 50 million voters being added to the system regardless of their country of origin at the time of their entry into the database network.
⁵ Title III of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (52 U.S.C. 21081 et seq.) deals with the institution of voting systems standards, specifically with regard to the “UNIFORM AND NONDISCRIMINATORY ELECTION TECHNOLOGY AND ADMINISTRATION REQUIREMENTS” (The heading of this section capitalized in accordance with the original proclamation, thereby preserving its continuity for the purpose of debate) outlined in Sec. 301 with the maintenance of ballot integrity detailed in subchapter (iii) of the (a) REQUIREMENTS subsection, a written account that appears as follows:
(iii) if the voter selects votes for more than one candidate for a single office—
(I) notify the voter that the voter has selected more than one candidate for a single office on the ballot;
(II) notify the voter before the ballot is cast and counted of the effect of casting multiple votes for the office; and
(III) provide the voter with the opportunity to correct the ballot before the ballot is cast and counted.
⁶ Voter caging is the practice by which a political party or partisan-based affiliate challenges the registrational merit of individuals opposed to the election of a prospective candidate into public office on the basis of their ability to demonstrate proof of residency. It involves the distribution of unsolicited articles, predominantly in the form of registered mail issued notices, to the physical addresses of voters that are either members of, or actively engaged in activities sponsored by organizations or entities deemed antithetical to the status quo.

RELEVANT TERMS/ DEFINITIONS
The term, ‘one-party imperialism,’ alternatively known as a one-party state, single-party state, one-party system, or single-party system, refers to the conceptualization of a unitary governmental assemblage whose scope of regency is predicated by the formulation of a centralized locus of control. This consolidation of power a hallmark of communist and dictatorial regimes, with two of the most noteworthy examples being the Marxist-Leninist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR, commonly known as the Soviet Union) that exercised dominion over a significant portion of Northern Eurasia from 1922-1991, as well as the People’s Republic of China (PRC), where the CPC (Communist Party of China) – founded in 1921 with the aid of the Far Eastern Bureau of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Far Eastern Secretariat of the Communist International (Comintern) Assembly – seized jurisdictional authority over the Kuomintang (KMT) Nationalist Government of mainland China in 1949 following a series of events pertaining to the Chinese Civil War.
