"The organized violence we have seen over the past 90 days continues and is encouraged by left-wing leaders. It started with destroying property, converting peaceful protests into riots and spreading hate. Now, this hate has escalated to fuel deadly attacks on police officers and citizens caught in the carnage. A weak condemnation of the violence is not enough – we need to put all of government resources into the fight to stop the violence once and for all."

"Now, as we approach one of the most consequential elections in our nation's history, it is dishonest and irresponsible for the Democrats to even suggest that states can set up a 'universal' mail-in system with so little time and zero safeguards. The United States is the democracy it is because of the faith we have in the legitimacy of our elections. Implementing such radical changes to our electoral system this close to an election is reckless and should be very transparent to the American electorate."
