Fetterman flip-flops on voter suppression legislation after speaking out against it

[RandySF]

As Republicans in the US House were preparing to vote on the Save America Act, which would disenfranchise up to 21 million Americans from voting in elections, US Sen. John reversed course from his opposition against voter ID laws while appearing on Fox News this past weekend.

“It’s not a radical idea for regular Americans to show your ID to vote, and absolutely those things are not Jim Crow or anything,” Fetterman said. “Of course, that’s part of an awful, awful legacy of our nation.”

Fetterman’s latest comments left some scratching their heads since they do not line up with what he has said in the past about voter ID requirements.

 ”In a letter to constituents on April 15th, 2025, Senator Fetterman publicly stated his commitment to protecting the right to vote, which he called the foundation of American democracy,” Amy Widestrom, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania, said in an interview.

3. I suppose his wife, Gisele, clued him in that her voting days are numbered,

unless he's down with her reclaiming her premarital birth name.

4. The stroke ended him.

The egg has been scrambled.

5. Presenting a photo Id when voting, is favored by a strong majority of the public. They don't

consider it voter suppression. The Republicans are pushing proof of citizenship when registering, which in many cases is unnecessary in many cases of people who already have an Id. His position is probably a good one to take in a swing state.

7. His position undermines his party.

Democrats, as a whole, tend to prefer more Democracy.

9. The majority of Americans

Disagree with the Bill of Rights.
Good thing rights aren't majority rule.

6. Now he'll solve the next national crisis: wild shark attacks in Iowa

8. Fetterman, you fool! It's more than that!!

I could be wrong, hopefully I am: Married women who took on their spouses name will have to provide a certified birth certificate and marriage license. This, just 9 f’king months before the election!
