| https://allen.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=4746 | Rep. Allen Statement on DOJ Lawsuit to Overturn Georgia's Election Law | 2021-06-25 | 2021 | 2021-06 | Republican | House | GA | Rick W. Allen | A000372 | allen.house.gov | allen | https://allen.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | Congressman Rick W. Allen (GA-12) today released the following statement after the U.S. Department of Justice announced a federal lawsuit in opposition to Georgia’s Election Integrity Act (S.B. 202): “Democrats are desperate to halt states’ constitutional changes to ensure integrity in their election systems. The announcement of this lawsuit comes just days after Senate Republicans blocked Democrats’ number one legislative priority, the For the People Act, from moving forward. This lawsuit is a political move by the Biden Administration on their quest to implement a federal takeover of our elections. “It is unconscionable that Attorney General Garland is willing to weaponize the DOJ and ignore the will of states, Congress and the American people who overwhelmingly support voter ID.” Background: Polling shows that 80 percent of Americans support requiring voters to show photo identification in order to cast a ballot. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:57:00Z |
