Democrats’ “Better Deal for Democracy” platform for midterms, explained

Democrats first announced the “A Better Deal” campaign, last summer, focusing on economic and political inequality “with Better Jobs, Better Wages and a Better Future for all Americans.”

This latest agenda, however, is focused on corruption around three pillars: voting rights and access, campaign finance, and pay-to-play politics. Democrats are planning to unveil a House resolution on the floor later this week along these lines, with specific bills to address the issues.

1) Democrats are focusing on voting rights.

In light of the outcome of 2016 election and subsequent investigations into voting integrity around possible Russian interference, Democrats are zeroing in on voters and increased mistrust of the election system. Their platform ranges from access to polling places and gerrymandering to concerns about hacking on Election Day. They’re pushing to bolster the Election Assistance Commission’s resources and implement automatic voter registration and gerrymandering reform. House Democrats will propose mandating independent commissions across the country to ensure district lines are not partisan.

“We make voting in this country more complicated than it needs to be,” Rep. John Sarbanes (D-MD), the chair of the Democracy Reform Task Force, which led the effort to write this agenda, told me.

2) They’re highlighting corruption and ethics violations in the Trump administration.

“Way too many ethics lines are being crossed by the administration,” Sarbanes said. “That’s not an opinion. That’s an observation.”

To counter it, Democrats plan to hit the campaign trail with policy proposals aimed at tightening lobbying rules.

Among these proposals would be legally requiring presidential candidates to disclose their tax returns. That’s a direct reaction to Trump, who has yet to release his financial records, bucking decades of political precedent and breaking his own promises of transparency.

Sarbanes also cited a proposal that would tighten lobbying rules and institute statutes against former lobbyists becoming Cabinet officials in agencies that have purview over industries that previously employed them.

3) Democrats take a swing at campaign finance reform.

This third pillar focuses on transparency in campaign donors. Sarbanes also cited a proposal that would create a 6-1 small-donor match program — a federal public financing system aimed at bolstering donations under $175.

Liberals are going to need our support and help once their world completely unravels.

Here’s What Democrats and the New Yorker Don’t Want You to Know About Kavanaugh Accuser Deborah Ramirez’s Story

“Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) has said Dianne Feinstein and her staff will be investigated to determine their role, if any, in leaking Christine Blasey Ford’s letter to the press. We hope Cotton and his fellow Republicans’ disgust with their colleagues from across the aisle isn’t feigned or forgotten. The last thing we need right now is a return to the kind of collegiality that allows the Democrats to play the dirtiest game imaginable while Republicans blather on about their “principles.”

HR 1111-The Democrats and the UN Plan to Seize Control of the Government

Remember the number of UN vehicles that turned up in the country around the time of the 2016 election?

Bear in mind that the UN is a mostly Islamic organization and is behind the policy requiring Western countries to accept an open border policy to allow the invasion of Islamic “refugees”.

The Democrat love affair with the UN and the Muslim Brotherhood made me think at the time that those trucks were in the country to enforce “peacekeeping” if the right wing populace got out of hand after Hillary stole the election. (She is still in shock that it didn’t work). Remember, we were designated as “terrorists” which also justified the government monitoring of and discrimination against us.

Technology exists which presently allows those in control of it to monitor our movements, as well as the websites we visit, our beliefs, and all that we buy and sell….among other things.

This technology led to the use of “social credits” in China which allow the government there to track and even remove (to fun camps which some say are organ farms) non-compliant individuals.

Keeping all of this in mind for the coming election, I hope that you will at least skim the following article and share it to help motivate everyone you can to vote and to vote Republican.
