WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Jun 09, 2021

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Reuters is reporting that thousands of voters are facing big

0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:06.560
<v Speaker 1>problems in Kansas. There in limbo, their voting privileges have

0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>been suspended until they can prove that their citizens Now.

0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:12.360
<v Speaker 1>This requirement has been in place in Kansas for three years,

0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:15.680
<v Speaker 1>but Reuters decided to illustrate how unfair it is, so

0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:18.880
<v Speaker 1>they showcase the plight of thirty seven year old hotel manager.

0:00:19.079 --> 0:00:21.599
<v Speaker 1>The guy moves from state to state due to his job.

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>After arriving in Kansas, he went to the motor vehicle department,

0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 1>got a driver's license and registered to vote, and then

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>he was shocked when he was not on the voter

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:34.000
<v Speaker 1>rolls for election. The poor guy didn't know that he

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>had to prove citizenship. Now. According to a writer's analysis,

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>three groups are hardest hit by the law, young voters

0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 1>because they don't have access to documents needed to provide citizenship,

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the unaffiliated, whatever the hell that is, and Democrats supposedly

0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the other two hardest hit groups in the Republican controlled state.

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I guess Republicans know the secret password to get the

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 1>right documents and they're not sharing it. Is that it now.

0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:01.760
<v Speaker 1>This law has been challenged in court but has managed

0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to survive. Now this upsets a guy named Pratt Wiley,

0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>who's the director of voter Expansion for the d n C.

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Wiley says that voting rules like photo I D laws

0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 1>have expanded in Republican states, but the one that gets

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:20.280
<v Speaker 1>him most nervous is the citizenship requirement in Kansas. Mr Pratt,

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>why would a citizenship requirement make you Democrats so nervous?

0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 1>What in the world is there to be nervous about

0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:29.600
<v Speaker 1>about citizenship
