Morelle | M001206 | morelle.house.gov | morelle | https://morelle.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | (Rochester, N.Y.)—With Election Day approaching, Congressman Joe Morelle, Ranking Member of the House Administration Committee, is calling on Speaker Mike Johnson—who has repeatedly denied the results of the 2020 election and raised questions about accepting the 2024 results—to uphold his responsibility to democracy by committing to honor the results of Tuesday’s election. As threats to election integrity grow, Morelle underscores the vital importance of respecting voters' decisions and safeguarding the democratic process. "At a time when Republicans have placed our electoral system under attack, it’s crucial that our leaders demonstrate an unwavering commitment to democracy," saidCongressman Joe Morelle. "I urge Speaker Johnson to break with the former President and respect the will of the people by joining with me in defending our democratic values by standing behind the election results." As a key voice on election integrity in Congress, Morelle remains dedicated to ensuring that the foundations of our democracy remain strong. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:07:06Z |
