Yesterday, California Rep. Barbara Lee called to speak with SiriusXM Urban View host Laura Coates about the 2020 race and election meddling.
During the interview, Representative Lee told Coates: “There are so many reasons why we must vote for the Biden-Harris ticket, regardless of what perspective you’re coming from it’s important if you really want to make sure that our democracy is not, actually dismantled, and this administration and you see how he has operated and who he is, in terms of his dictatorial approaches to government, dismantling all of the apparatus of government.”

Congresswoman Lee shared her reaction on the recent decision to no longer provide in person election briefings for congress: “I am outraged over this because first of all, this is just another effort to take away people’s rights to vote. But secondly, when you try to shut down information, when you’re trying to keep information from elected officials who people elect that is once again, a sign that this democracy is in jeopardy. And so people need to be outraged about this because we have to have this information. This is another example of how the three branches of government now are being blurred by this administration. We have three branches, right? Judiciary, the Executive and the Legislative branch. That’s what our constitutional and the Founding Fathers required. Now, you see this administration tried to shut down every branch except the administrative branch. And so I’d say this is another example of the dangers to our democracy, the dangers of not providing the information to elected officials so that we can make informed decisions about upholding people’s constitutional rights. It’s a shame and disgrace, and we’re going to have to get to the bottom of it. And I know that we’re looking at how to really take this on so that they can reverse this decision, because this is outrageous and it’s very, un-American.”
