How the Texas voting bill would have created hurdles for voters of color

So here's what's really odd....

Our faith-based help center, in which I am intimately involved, has basically two streams of help.

When we provide food or goods to people from "our own" stream - private donations, corporate donations, goods and services - we have a sit down with the applicant and discuss their needs, and help where we can.

We also have a major component where we provide, as an agent of the government, goods and services from FEMA or Texas Comprehensive Energy Assistance Program (CEAP), or SMART, or CHIP or any other government agencies - we are required to obtain a photostatic copy of their drivers license and or social security card --- every single time.

When WE provide the help, no. When we provide the help as an agent of the government - every stinkin' time, no matter how well we know the recipient.

There have only been a few times we've had people who couldn't offer some type of acceptable ID, but we have a squad of people (headed by yours truly) who will work with DPS and Social Security and the County Courthouse, and we help them obtain - within DAYS, not weeks - the required documentation at no cost to them.

This "hurdles" crap is... well.. crap.

So the number of COVID cases amongst the dems that skedaddled is up to 6 now. Did they not take their shots?

Republicans pass law stating you are not allowed to go to the polls naked. Democrats cry that nudist votes are being suppressed.

You don't need to imagine how the MSM would be all over this as a potential super-spreader event if they had been Republicans

And publish tons of articles about how it adversely effects poor and minority nudists in particular.

Ms. Mace obliterating the phony leftist election racism narrative in 5 minutes...

Facts are just so racist.

The latest is that they got a judge to restrict the state legislature from compelling a quorum. So, now they can return home, collect their money, not show up for work, block legislation, while calling for a workaround to the filibuster in the us senate so it doesn't block legislation...
