Lee said elections in the United States have always been conducted at the local and state level and that by passing the bill, Democrats are ensuring they will remain in power for decades.
The bill removes a multitude of restrictions created within the U.S. voting system and proposes to expand voting rights to felons, allow people to vote with a sworn written statement as opposed to a valid ID, and institutes automatic voter registration nationwide.
