House Republicans criticize DC election laws in hearing

Congressional Republicans criticized D.C.’s election laws on Wednesday during an hours-long hearing.

Democrats on the GOP-controlled House Oversight and Administration Committee contended that Republicans are trying to make a national example out of DC to score political points for future elections.

Republicans want to take a sledgehammer to D.C.’s election laws. They said there are many issues, including the fact that non-citizens will be allowed to vote starting next year.
