The so-called For the People Act, otherwise known as H.R. 1, was a brazen ploy by congressional Democrats to shift the electoral landscape in favor of the Democratic Party by way of federalizing our elections. Though liberals in Washington failed in that attempt to rig the system, they are renewing their efforts by attempting to force through amnesty for illegal immigrants as part of the federal budget. Stopping this is a matter of great urgency for the Republican Party.
Some budget bills are immune to a Senate filibuster, meaning that only a simple majority, not a supermajority, is needed to pass them. With Kamala Harris’s tiebreaking vote in the Senate and a majority in the House, congressional Democrats may have the political clout necessary to turn their budget into law, amnesty and all, if they can clear some complicated parliamentary hurdles.
