Subject line: PLEASE OPPOSE SB 20
Dear Members of the House & Governmental Affairs Committee,
SB 20 seeks to strip Louisiana of a fair balance of power by taking away the Governor’s authority to veto potential election plans. This veto allowed our current election plan to be properly vetted by all three branches of government, ultimately with the federal courts deciding that the plan proposed by Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin did not adequately support and protect the voters of Louisiana. This is why our democratic system of checks and balances exists—to protect the rights of the people. SB 20 is fundamentally in opposition to the principles of American democracy. PLEASE OPPOSE SB 20.
Thank you,
