Republicans don’t care about election security

They think foreign meddling will help Trump again. That’s all they care about. We know a lot more than we did in 2016 about interference but McConnell won’t even give hearings to election security bills passed by the House. Trump has no interest in the truth – the spread of disinformation helps him. Sad!

BREAKING NEWS: Bipartisan Senate panel concludes Russia penetrated all 50 States’ election systems and is poised to change vote tallies. But Trump & McConnell still block all defensive measures. Betraying national security and democracy. https://t.co/K6iUcUB1ax

Here’s the truth: the Majority Leader has been blocking multiple serious, bipartisan election security bills for months.

If he would let it, the Senate could get serious about election security right now. Let’s hold hearings. Let’s vote. Let’s do our jobs. https://t.co/nnAYb0XVPN

Russia attacked our elections once and they will try again.

So why won’t Mitch McConnell bring up our Secure Elections Act for a vote? https://t.co/defoHBM0pk

McConnell objects to a Democratic effort to move forward on election security legislation, calling it a “highly partisan” move and “not a serious” effort – adding that it comes from same Dems pushing “conspiracy theory” on Trump and Russia

On the same day Mueller warned Russia is interfering in the 2020 election “as we sit here” & that accepting foreign assistance has become the “new normal”, Senate GOP blocked two election security bills, including one requiring campaigns inform FBI of offers of foreign help.

The Trump campaign should have told the FBI about the Russia meeting in Trump Tower. They never should have met with our enemy.

Republicans JUST blocked 2 election security bills — hours after Mueller said Russia is actively trying to sway the 2020 elections — showing in plain sight that they’re willing to dismantle our democracy & take help from our most dangerous adversary to win https://t.co/yfEdJr7v7U
