How Spanky Upended Biden’s Successful Push For Federal Agencies To Register Voters

"In March, 2021, then-President Joe Biden became the first president to make it clear: Federal agencies should be registering voters.![1_yJD0_AW_c2b8jURGtBOUtw[1].webp 1_yJD0_AW_c2b8jURGtBOUtw[1].webp](https://www.houseofpolitics.com/data/attachments/20/20802-b9480341d20e790752eabb21377e03fc.jpg?hash=s8AwXJ37Pe)

How Spanky Upended Biden’s Successful Push For Federal Agencies To Register Voters

An executive order issued by Biden that month led to unprecedented voter registration efforts by federal agencies that were lauded by voting rights advocates: The Department of the Interior worked with several states to make Tribal institutions voter registration centers. The Department of Veterans Affairs created a pilot voter registration program with Kentucky, Michigan and Pennsylvania. And the Small Business Administration started registering voters at local entrepreneur events in Michigan. That was just the start.

But Republicans went ballistic, filing lawsuits and launching congressional probes into the order. They described the move as federal overreach, and warned, without evidence [as usual], that it would lead to non-citizens getting on the rolls.

When Presidunce Spanky returned to the White House in January, his first action was to rescind it, along with dozens of other Biden executive orders."
