The Truth About the One Big Beautiful Bill – Voter Suppression
The Truth About the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB)It’s not beautiful. It’s brutal.
The One Big Beautiful Bill, or OBBB, might sound like progress, but it’s anything but. This bill is a calculated attack on our right to vote—and it’s already hurting people across the country. Here’s how:
🚧 OBBB Reduces Access to Polling Places
The OBBB slashes the number of polling places, especially in rural areas and low-income neighborhoods. That means voters now drive 30 to 90 minutes just to cast a ballot. Add in gas prices, time off work, and child care costs—and suddenly, voting isn’t a right anymore. It’s a burden.
🗺️ OBBB Fuels Gerrymandering
The One Big Beautiful Bill encourages states to redraw voting maps to benefit those in power. That’s called gerrymandering. By splitting up districts and manipulating lines, the OBBB lets politicians choose their voters—not the other way around. It weakens your voice and undermines fair elections.
⏰ OBBB Shrinks Voting Windows
Want to vote early? The OBBB cuts those days. Can’t get to the polls until after work? OBBB restricts evening hours. This hurts working families, students, and anyone without flexibility. Voting should be easy and accessible, not a test of endurance.
🧾 OBBB Creates Red Tape to Block Votes
The One Big Beautiful Bill adds new voter ID laws, limits ballot drop boxes, and increases the chance your ballot gets tossed on a technicality. These rules disproportionately affect the elderly, people with disabilities, and voters without stable housing or transportation. OBBB doesn’t make elections safer—it makes them harder.
❌ OBBB Is Voter Suppression, Plain and Simple
This bill isn’t about election security. It’s about controlling who gets a say. The OBBB targets everyday people, not fraud. Its real goal is to silence voices that threaten the status quo.
