Statement

Date: Jan. 13, 2022
Location: Washington, DC

Congressman Darin LaHood (IL-18) today voted against Democrats' election power grab that would nationalize elections. LaHood released the following statement after his vote:

"It is an indisputable fact that voter turnout in America has never been higher, yet Democrats continue to push a false voter suppression narrative to attempt an unconstitutional federal takeover of our electoral system," said Rep. LaHood. "As President Biden's poll numbers plummet, the smallest majority in the history of Congress is attempting to change the way we run elections in every state. Congressional Democrats' efforts to blow up legislative and procedural rules to push their federal takeover of elections will undermine the faith in and the security of our electoral system."
