Democrats can't keep their ID arguments straight

Rapid Response

Looks like no one told Chicago’s Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot about D.C. Democrats’ desperate pivot to eviscerate voter integrity.

While Democrats in Washington push to undermine widely-popular voter ID provisions, Lightfoot is requiring vaccine ID to do almost anything in Chicago.

But Stacey Abrams baselessly told me ID provisions were “Jim Crow 2.0” … so which is it?

And today, D.C. joined Chicago and New York in announcing a vaccine mandate – a mandate that would ban up to 53.6% of D.C.’s Black residents from restaurants, gyms, entertainment facilities, and other indoor venues.

The hypocrisy is clear – Democrats want to violate fundamental liberties with mandates and to require you show vaccine ID to live your life, but don’t want even basic voter ID provisions to protect the integrity of the ballot box.

And the Democrats’ anti-integrity efforts don’t stop at voter ID. The RNC Research team broke down how terrible the Democrats’ “Election Suppression” and “Freedom to Cheat” Acts really are in this recent piece.

Democrats have really missed the mark on this one – the American people see their hypocrisy and don’t support their federal election takeover attempts.
