Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is set to bring S.1 to the floor for a test vote Tuesday evening despite little chance of it passing the upper chamber. And while the legislation is called the For the People Act, the American people are not for the act, polling shows.
According to a survey conducted this spring by Echelon Insights, “public campaign financing is deeply unpopular” with more than two-thirds of voters opposing the idea. The concept of public campaign financing?? is deeply unpopular to voters. 67% of voters strongly/somewhat oppose the idea in general, and 69% strongly/somewhat oppose it in regards to campaigns that have already raised millions of dollars. pic.twitter.com/d8MkZLOY3F — Echelon Insights (@EchelonInsights) March 24, 2021 A poll commissioned by the Honest Elections Project found that more than 75 percent of voters support requiring a photo ID to cast a ballot, a practice that states would be barred from employing under the provisions of the For the People Act.
The same HEP poll also found that just 11 percent of voters want to allow the practice of ballot harvesting—something all states would have to allow under S.1— while more than 60 percent think such unsupervised collection and casting of ballots should be illegal.
The opposition to the key pieces of the For the People Act means that fewer than three-in-ten Americans support the passage of S.1, HEP’s poll also showed.
With opposition among Republicans and even some Democrats—including Joe Manchin (D-WV), a scenario in which Schumer can secure the 60 votes needed to end debate and subsequently pass the For the People Act is essentially unimaginable. “Senate Dems on track to suffer stinging defeat on election reform,” declared a CNN chyron Tuesday morning.
Republicans portray the For the People Act as just one piece of Democrat plans to radically change the way America’s government functions by centralizing more power, adding liberal states to the Union, packing the Supreme Court, and limiting debate over future legislation by gutting the Senate’s filibuster.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
