President Joe Biden signed an executive order yesterday which would increase voter registration for prisoners and those on probation.

A fact sheet on White House.gov states, “The order will direct the attorney general to establish procedures to provide educational materials related to voter registration and voting, and to the extent practicable, to facilitate voter registration, for all eligible individuals in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.”

The U.S. Marshal service was requested to include language on its contracts to facilitate voting by mail and ensure eligible criminals have information on voting and voter registration.

It also instructs the Attorney Genreal to help support former prisoners with obtaining identification that satisfies state voter I.D. laws.

Newsmax reports:

Biden’s plan was announced during a recorded address on the 56th commemoration of “Bloody Sunday,” the 1965 incident in which some 600 civil rights activists were viciously beaten by state troopers as they tried to march for voting rights in Selma, Alabama.

“Every eligible voter should be able to vote and have it counted,” Biden said in his remarks to Sunday’s Martin and Coretta King Unity Breakfast before signing the order. “If you have the best ideas, you have nothing to hide. Let the people vote.”

News of Biden’s executive order comes just after the Senate passed the $1.9 trillion so-called COVID relief bill. The bill was slammed by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) who says murderers like Dylan Roof and the Boston Bomber will get $1,400 stimulus checks:

Dylann Roof murdered nine people. He's on federal death row.

He'll be getting a $1,400 stimulus check as part of the Democrats' "COVID relief" bill.

We’ll leave you with some food for thought on all of this:

Joe Biden just signed an executive order making it easier for criminals IN PRISON to vote

He’s about to sign a bill into law that sends $1,400 checks to criminals in prison

So much for governing as a “moderate”
