Rep. Moore: Election Funding Biggest Threat to HEROES Act

Rep. Moore: Election Funding Biggest Threat to HEROES Act

August 10, 2020

Saturday on MSNBC’s Velshi, Rep. Gwen Moore stated that the biggest threat to the HEROES Act is the money in the bill “to protect our elections” and “the fact that Democrats are not going to compromise on having monies to make sure that people can vote safely.” She added that if Republicans could get House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to eliminate the election funding in the bill, the HEROES package could move forward “a lot faster.”

“I’ll tell you, the greatest threat to the — our HEROES package to try to give people some relief is the fact that we had monies in that bill to protect our elections, to stand up the Post Office, and the greatest threat to that package, I think, is the fact that Democrats are not going to compromise on having monies to make sure that people can vote safely,” Moore stated.

“I think that if they could hold this HEROES package up long enough, or get the — get Nancy and Chuck to relieve them of the election funding, they would move the HEROES package through a lot faster,” she added.

Never mind the HEROES act — the biggest threat to elections is the Democrat push for voting-by-mail.
