Leader Jeffries Statement on Republican Voter Suppression Legislation

September 1st, 2026 | Press Release LEADER JEFFRIES STATEMENT ON REPUBLICAN VOTER SUPPRESSION LEGISLATION Today, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries released the following statement: House Republicans continue to desperately push toxic voter suppression legislation instead of working to make life more affordable for everyday Americans in the midst of a searing cost-of-living crisis. House Resolution 1490 explicitly calls for enactment of the so-called SAVE America Act, which is the top legislative priority of far-right extremists. Accordingly, I will vote No on the latest MAGA effort to rig the midterm elections. ### Back to News Share: Facebook Twitter
