President Biden signed an executive order Sunday directing federal agencies to take steps to promote access to voting as a voting-rights bill he has endorsedThe executive order calls for the modernization and improvement of a government website that provides voting information; seeks recommendations on federal employees taking the day off to vote or to volunteer as nonpartisan poll workers; asks for an evaluation of barriers to voting for those with disabilities; and creates a Native American...
Mr. Biden signed the order on the 56th anniversary of “Bloody Sunday,” the day police attacked peaceful civil-rights protesters in 1965 as they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala. The president also virtually addressed this year’s Martin and Coretta King Unity Breakfast, an event held annually in Selma, on Sunday.
“Every eligible voter should be able to vote and have that vote counted,” Mr. Biden said at the breakfast, according to his prepared remarks. “If you have the best ideas, you have nothing to hide. Let the people vote.” Sunday’s presidential directive comes as Republicans in several states are pushing restrictions and requirements on early voting or mail-in voting. Administration officials told reporters that the order was a way to use the president’s moral authority to send a message to those states, but they acknowledged that Mr. Biden lacks authority to push back meaningfully on any state laws through executive action alone.
Headline should read: Biden signed executive order to legalize the illegality of the 2020 election.
Republican states can just ignore Harris-Biden as states have right to do as they decide not the duo. The duo are trying to run all into their mold by using decrees the same as power figures in totalitarian nation states.
Voting early and vote often for honest Joe. How is Hunter Biden going by the way? Asking for a friend.
It is difficult and not necessarily human to force people who do not want to live together, who have different aspirations, to live together.
Every free and sovereign state needs to take action now to secure the integrity of their own elections, in defiance of any unconstitutional federal mandates if need be. The 10th amendment gives vast powers to the states and the people for a reason. The states must act NOW!
Sad that the only way to keep Republicans from stealing elections is through executive orders. They know they can't win without cheating.
Beautiful move. I wonder what the Reps counter will be
That'll piss off South Dakotas Republican Supermajority who are doing just that !
Youll truly never know if your vote is counted and if AI is voting for you BLOCKCHAIN DRIVEN REALID GLOBAL CITIZEN PASSPORT take over as human cattle tracking system that will GRANT OR DENY access to food water housing voting travel knowledge using biometrics & surveillance
Biden is ruling with extra-congressional powers at an unprecedented level. His number of Executive Orders is more than twice that of Trump and way above those of any modern-day President. No end in sight. Where are the liberals decrying the usurpation of the separation of powers?

JeffreyMeursing Biden can't use executive orders to tell states how and when to vote. How to vote is the state's prerogative. We should have federal laws that govern elections for federal offices and guarantee every citizen the opportunity to vote.
More unity by Executive Order 🤦
So... Why does the U.S. oppose China's measures to improve Hong Kong's electoral system?🤔
“You can’t do it by executive order, unless you’re a dictator. We’re a democracy, we need consensus.” - Presidential Candidate - Joseph R. Biden
It’s not about restricting votes. It’s about making sure only legitimate votes are counted.
Copied I would like everyone reading this to understand that as a Democrat, I can hold two thoughts in my head and criticize my own party (something apparently beyond Republicans) and still give them a passing grade. I belong to a party of nuance and logic. Have it no other way!
Translation: mooing what Nance says to do
Seems odd and weird timing after supposedly 'winning' an election.
Why would anyone want to restrict mail in vote... Oh.
What an embarrassment JoeBiden is. The elections have been and must always be controlled by the states. The Federal Government must stand Down. May God continue to bless the United States of America.
Kamala wears a mask so no one can see the ventriloquist’s lips move
Democrats from 2016-2020: ‘TRUMP COLLUDED WITH THE RUSSIANS AND STOLE THE ELECTION!!! FRAUD, PRISON!!!!!’ Democrats post-2020: ‘It’s like literally totally impossible to rig an election in this country’
I don’t watch the news however I get the news but when was voting an issue or what’s going on I thought they where in office already
