“Outrageous Abuse of Power” – Biden Accused of Illegally Using Taxpayer Funds to Help His 2024 Campaign with New Student Voter Scheme

was accused of illegally using taxpayer funds to help his 2024 campaign with the new student voter scheme.

Kamala Harris on Tuesday announced the Biden Regime will now allow students to get paid through federal work study to register people to vote.

Harris privately met with a few dozen leaders to push a plan to ‘protect voting rights’ – which is Democrat speak for flooding the ballot boxes with fraudulent ballots.

“We have seen those who would loudly attempt to interfere in the lawful votes of the American people and attempt to question the integrity of a fair and free election system,” Harris said before the roundtable in the Indian Treaty Room. “We have seen a rise in threats against poll workers. In fact, I met some recently in Georgia who had harrowing experiences in terms of how they were threatened, their well-being as well as their livelihood.”

Harris said the new plan will allow students to get paid through federal work study to register people to vote in an effort to “activate them.”

Legal experts told , Biden’s new student voter scheme is an “outrageous abuse of power.”

‘It is a violation of the Hatch Act as well as the Anti-Deficiency Act,’ Heritage senior legal fellow Hans A. von Spakovsky told Fox News Digital.

Excerpt from Fox News:

Jason Snead, executive director of Honest Elections Project, told Fox News Digital the effort is being carried out by the Biden administration to “aid its own re-election efforts.”

“The is weaponizing the federal government to aid its own re-election efforts. Using tax dollars to pay overwhelmingly liberal college students to register and turn out voters is only the latest scandal,” Snead said.

“With Executive Order 14019, President Biden turned the entire federal government into a get-out-the-vote operation, and agencies are collaborating with left-wing nonprofit groups to get the job done.

“Using the levers of the federal government to aid an incumbent is an abuse of power and a threat to the democracy President Biden claims to cherish.”

Hans A. von Spakovsky is a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation’s Meese Center for Legal and Judicial Studies who serves as manager of the think tank’s Election Law Reform Initiative. He told Fox News Digital the taxpayer-funded effort is an “outrageous abuse of power” by the Biden administration.

“This is the unauthorized use of taxpayer funds to get out the vote for the Biden campaign and Democratic candidates,” he said. “It is a violation of the Hatch Act as well as the Anti-Deficiency Act. It is an outrageous abuse of power.”
