#HouseRepublicans held a hearing today on the need to prevent noncitizen voting in federal elections, despite it already being illegal and there not being evidence of the phenomenon. #Democrat Rep #JoeMorelle said, “It’s not provable because there’s no proof.”

JUST IN: Rep #JoeMorelle, top #Dem on the House Admin Committee — which oversees #ElectionAdministration — urges #AG #MerrickGarland and #DOJ to investigate the #robocall imitating #JoeBiden's voice that has been circulating in #NewHampshire.

Coming over the next few months: #OpenAccess to 40k hours of security video of the #Jan6 mob attack on the Capitol.

The OA video will exclude footage that "compromise[s] security" or "doxes, or harasses private individuals."

#Republicans made the decision. Dem #JoeMorelle objected on security grounds.

Recall that in Feb 2023, #KevinMcCarthy gave 41k hours of footage to #TuckerCarlson, but not to the public.
