<p>Faced with Democratic opposition over a national election integrity bill, House Republicans are upping the ante instead of reflexively making concessions.</p>
<p>They passed the SAVE Act in April by a vote of 220-208, with all Republicans voting yes and all but four Democrats voting no. That bill would require proof of citizenship for all new voter registrations.</p>
<p>Two of the Democrats who voted yes, U.S. Representatives <strong>Vicente Gonzalez</strong> and <strong>Henry Cuellar</strong>, represent South Texas border districts.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2026/02/only-citizens-voting-isnt-jim-crow-its-democracy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>The Democrats’ plan to “save democracy” is pretty clear.</p>
<p>Their first order of business is to defeat former President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> by any means possible, wielding the legal system like a stiletto.</p>
<p>The second is to get rid of as many election integrity safeguards as possible. More about that in a moment, with Virginia as a striking example.</p>
<p>Mr. Trump, whose momentum toward the GOP nomination may be unstoppable, is being hounded on absurd charges by Democratic prosecutors in Democratic-run courts in four jurisdictions with jury pools dominated by Democrats.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/01/democrats-one-party-tyranny-is-the-real-meaning-of-saving-democracy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>The growing revolt in America against cultural madness is annoying the ruling elites, but not enough to keep them from continuing to foist their evil agenda brazenly on the rest of us.</p>
<p>The criminalization of political opposition continues apace. The Justice Department actually indicted former President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> on Thursday over documents stored at his house. But not President <strong>Joe Biden</strong> for essentially the same offense. Meanwhile, as evidence pours out of congressional investigations about millions of dollars from China, Ukraine and other nations flowing into the Biden family’s 20 different accounts, the elite media yawn.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/06/ruling-elites-keep-wrecking-our-country-and-corrupting-children-without-consequences/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>When the Soviet Union existed — 1917 to 1991 — its hapless citizens resorted to dark humor in the face of constant lies.</p>
<p>Open defiance could land them in the Siberian gulag or a KGB torture chamber in a dank basement near the Kremlin. So they learned to joke among themselves about absurd government claims, such as <em>Pravda</em> insisting that the economy was surging and the collective farms overflowing with food.</p>
<p>Here are a couple of typical Soviet jests:</p>

<p>The first rule of any Marxist revolution is that rules are fine if they advance the cause or cripple opponents.  The rules can be discarded the minute they get in the way.</p>
<p>That’s the way America’s Marxists, socialists and many liberals operate when it comes to the U.S. Constitution, especially the First Amendment.</p>
<p>Here’s the relevant portion:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press.”</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/rejecting-the-marxists-version-of-the-constitution/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Justin McCarthy</em></p>
<p>As partisan-fueled court battles over state voting laws are poised to shape the political landscape in 2016 and beyond, new Gallup research shows four in five Americans support both early voting and voter ID laws. A smaller majority of 63% support automatic voter registration.</p>
<p><a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Graphic2.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6696" src="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Graphic2.png" alt="graphic2" width="556" height="484" srcset="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Graphic2.png 556w, https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Graphic2-300x261.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 556px) 100vw, 556px" /></a></p>
<p>These data come from an Aug. 15-16 Gallup poll.</p>
<p>While providing early voting opportunities and requiring voters to show photo identification at polling stations are popular among a majority of Americans, both are contentiously debated by party leaders and are being contested in state courts.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/09/four-in-five-americans-support-voter-id-laws-early-voting/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Jan LaRue</em></p>
<p>If photo ID laws are the bane to minority voting rights that leftists and assorted federal judges claim, you’d expect the public to agree. Not even close.</p>
<p>Eighty percent of Americans, white and nonwhite across party lines support photo ID laws, according to a <a href="http://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndicationhttp://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndicationhttp://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndicationhttp://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndicationhttp://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndicationhttp://www.gallup.com/poll/194741/four-five-americans-support-voter-laws-early-voting.aspx?utm_source=tagrss&#38;utm_medium=rss&#38;utm_campaign=syndication">Gallup poll</a> taken Aug. 15-16:</p>

</ul>

<p><em>Written by Peter Tapsak and Jason Snead</em></p>
<p>With this November’s election looming just over the horizon, the topic of voter fraud is popping up much more frequently in our news feeds.</p>
<p>Progressives insist that voter fraud is a myth, a charade meant to justify repressive voting laws. The facts, however, tell a different story: Voter fraud is real, and if we ignore it, we leave our ballot boxes open to fraudsters who would rather steal elections than risk losing in a fair and open contest.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/08/voter-fraud-is-real-here-are-4-more-cases/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
