ACRU’s Blackwell: Honoring America’s Greatest Generation by Protecting Their Votes

By |2023-03-06T12:10:34-05:00May 6th, 2020|

America holds its “Greatest Generation” in a unique place of honor. We treasure the enormous contributions the men and women who are now our senior citizens have made to our freedom and prosperity, at home and abroad. Yet the sacred right of today’s seniors, both in the Greatest Generation and subsequent ones, to have their political choices honored at the ballot box, are at high risk because of vote fraud.

ACRU’s von Spakovsky: Governors can’t suspend the First Amendment

By |2023-03-06T12:10:34-05:00May 5th, 2020|

A federal district court judge has taught Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly (a Democrat) a valuable lesson: The COVID-19 pandemic does not give her the right to suspend the First Amendment right of Kansans to practice their religious beliefs. Several other state and local officials should take heed, too. Kelly signed a series of executive orders restricting public and private activities due to the COVID-19 crisis. On April 7, she issued Executive Order 20-18, prohibiting “mass gatherings” of more than 10 people in a confined or enclosed space. Violators were subject to up to a year in prison, a $2,500 fine, or both.

ACRU’s Blackwell: We must protect military votes from Dem’s pro-fraud provisions

ACRU's Protect Military Votes project is dedicated to ensuring the security of military votes of service members overseas. ACRU Policy Board Member Ken Blackwell takes on House Democrats and reveals their plan to jeopardize the security of these votes. We are (somewhat) grateful they showed their hand during the COVID-19 relief bill debate, and grateful to Ken for fighting back.

Congressional Democrats Remove All Doubt That They Support Vote Fraud

By |2023-03-06T12:11:46-05:00March 24th, 2020|

Last minute insertions into the Senate’s Coronavirus relief bill by House Democrats would impose permanent changes to election protocols that will encourage and protect vote fraud. At ACRU, we think it is critically important for all our friends and supporters to understand the seriousness of what is at stake should Nancy Pelosi’s provisions pass Congress.

House Democrats plot federal takeover of local elections

By |2023-03-06T12:11:51-05:00February 16th, 2020|

ACRU Policy Board Member and Heritage Foundation Legal Fellow Hans von Spakovsky takes aim at Congressional Democrat’s latest attack on voting integrity, H.R. 4, which Hans calls, “The Election Fraud Advancement Act.” This bill would “have DC take over state and local elections and stop reforms to improve security of the voting process.” The bill uses false claims of “racism” to thwart a SCOTUS decision and limit the rights of state and local citizens. It’s awful. Call your Congressman.

ACRU Action Editorial: Bloomberg’s Big Money Shenanigans in Virginia

By |2023-03-06T12:11:55-05:00February 5th, 2020|

ACRU/ACRU Action Fund identifies Virginia’s 2019 elections as the canary in the liberal coal mine for the November 2020 elections. Michael Bloomberg spent $2.5 million to turn the state blue by instilling fear in voters about lawful gun ownership—and it worked. Kerri notes that liberals are looking to turn the majority of state governments and the White House blue, and Virginia is now pushing an armful of leftist bills through the legislature after their win. Going forward, their VA plan deserves careful scrutiny.

Hypocrisy of the anti-voter ID crowd

By |2023-03-06T12:11:56-05:00January 28th, 2020|

Russia! They altered votes! They interfered! They elected Republicans! They moved my cheese! Although the ridiculous Russian collusion hoax has fallen into the lake of fire where it belongs, progressive activists, media and politicians could not have harped on it more in 2017 and 2018. And yet, as ACRU Issue Expert Christian Adams points out, domestic voter fraud is just fine with liberals. He notes that voter ID is supported by around 80% of Americans. So, liberal friends, if our voting programs are being targeted by the Russians … why don’t you want to make sure legal votes are protected?
