This is a copy of the newsletter about the Florida election laws and what our buddy Bill Nelson would like to do about getting them rolled back.  You had better write (I don't suspect he will listen since he hasn't for quite some time now............but we have to keep trying).  The copies of his letters and Durbin's letter are available along with the letter sent to our state attorney general.  He must not be allowed to get our laws reversed so we can have massive voter fraud.  The folks involved don't exactly inspire faith at least for me: Bill Nelson, Dick Durbin (from of all places Illinois) and Eric Holder (nothing virtuous there).

Here is an E-Letter from Bill Nelson and below it, my response:

Dear Friends,

Late yesterday, I received word that a congressional panel has agreed to my request to investigate new voting restrictions passed earlier this year by Florida's Legislature. Florida's law cut early voting days and limited voter registration drives, among other changes. Some believe its passage was part of a broader voter-suppression effort in more than a dozen states that passed voting limits this year.

Sen. Dick Durbin, the Illinois lawmaker in charge of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee, said in a letter to me yesterday he’ll hold an investigative field hearing in Florida, in part, because Florida’s new law "will almost certainly disenfranchise a wide swath of the state's young, minority, senior, disabled, rural, and low income voters."

“In a democracy as vibrant as ours,” Sen. Durbin wrote, “there is perhaps no right that is so sacred or fundamental than the right to vote. I am deeply troubled by the disenfranchising impact of these recently passed state voting laws.”

You can click here to read his letter and my letter requesting the investigation.

I’ll be sure to let you know when and where the hearing will be. Thanks for your interest in this issue.
