The MOVE Act was passed in 2009. It's lead author and sponsor was Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), chairman of the Senate Rules Committee. It was co-sponsored by John Cornyn (R-Texas.)If you want to know the history behind this fraud, check with Election Law Center. However at this posting, it is not opening and redirecting to themfiles@quickblogcast.com. The originator of Election Law Center posts voter fraud of all kinds since he left the Justice Dept.
In a statement to FoxNews.com, Sen. Schumer said:
"Put these ballots on the next plane to Afghanistan. These soldiers sacrifice their lives to protect our freedoms, they should never, ever be denied their right to vote. I wrote and passed this law so our brave men and women overseas would no longer be disenfranchised and there is absolutely no excuse for failing to get this done. The boards of election should immediately get these ballots to each and every one of our service members around the world. They should overnight them if they have to — no ifs, ands or buts."
Cornyn gave this statement to FoxNews.com:
"The fact that New York government officials failed to live up to the clear terms of the waiver is shocking, in light of how much our troops have sacrificed in the years since 9/11. This is a clear violation of federal voting rights law. If DOJ does not file a suit to right this wrong as soon as the courts open on Tuesday, then we will know once and for all that DOJ is not serious about safeguarding military voting rights."
