Resolution to Create ‘election integrity” Committee Threatens Integrity of our State Election

On Thursday, October 1st, a resolution to create an ‘election integrity’ committee was passed out of committee to be voted on soon by the full PA House of Representatives. It would not need the Senate’s approval or Governor Wolf’s signature.

The plan would create a committee of 3 Republican lawmakers and 2 Democrats, to investigate and review the election. Such a committee is unprecedented, and its powers are broad and vague.

Representative (D) vehemently opposed the resolution, which was featured on Rachel Maddow’s show on October 1st. You can listen to the full exchange here. Rep. Kenyatta says, “They [the committee] would all be selected by the Republican Speaker which is completely out of the norm…This is the concern: We cannot have people who are up for election, investigate their own election.”

An attempt was made to rush the Resolution through for a vote by the full PA House of Representatives but was delayed by a member of the House testing positive case for Covid. The vote has now been rescheduled for Monday, October 19th. This is our time to act!

ACTION: With all the concerns about the coming election and claims of fraud, we need to be sure that our PA voters are the ones to determine the “electors” who will cast the PA Electoral College votes.

WE MUST ACT NOW! URGE THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOUSE REPRESENTATIVES TO VOTE NO ON HR 1032. PLEASE CALL ALL OFFICES AS WELL AS YOUR OWN REPRESENTATIVE! CONTACT: State Leadership
