Frankel Responds to Trump's Primetime Attack on Voting Rights

Today, Congresswoman Lois Frankel (FL-22) released the following statement in response to President Trump's Thursday evening election remarks:

"President Trump's address last night was another attempt to distract the American people with falsehoods and long-debunked conspiracy theories about our elections instead of addressing the issues families care about most," said Rep. Frankel.

"While Americans are paying more for groceries, housing, and health care, President Trump and Republicans are focused on spreading election misinformation and advancing legislation that makes it harder for eligible Americans to vote. The facts remain unchanged: the 2020 election was secure-a conclusion confirmed by the Trump Administration's own review, bipartisan election officials, independent audits, and the courts.

"Along with House Democrats I will continue fighting to lower costs, protect Social Security and Medicare, defend the freedom to vote, and hold accountable anyone who abuses public office for personal gain. We stand with the dedicated state and local election officials who protect the integrity of our elections, and we will continue working to ensure every eligible American can cast a ballot freely and confidently. The strongest answer to fear and misinformation is participation. Make a plan to vote, vote early if you can, and encourage your family, friends, and neighbors to do the same. In our democracy, the most important title is not President or Representative-it is citizen."
