AOC warns the GOP is sabotaging mail-in votes

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortéz (D-NY) warned Tuesday on social media that Republicans are attempting to embed voter suppression measures into an insider trading bill as a tactic to implement President Donald Trump's desired voting restrictions.

AOC wrote on social media, "Republicans are trying to pull a trick this week," adding, "They say we are voting on an 'insider trading' bill, but have snuck in massive SAVE Act-style voter suppression measures to it."

The SAVE America Act provisions would restrict national mail-in voting.

AOC argued Republicans would not mix insider trading restrictions with voter suppression if they were serious about either issue, calling the combination a sabotage strategy.

She urged colleagues to oppose the measure and "spread the word."

Congress passed disclosure requirements for congressional stock trades in 2012, though enforcement remains weak.

Republicans introduced similar legislation earlier this year, which AOC criticized for reducing transparency.

"I’m voting NO," affirmed the Congressman.
