8) Prohibiting attempts to clean voter rolls of non-residents.
It's this whole section, but in particular, this part below basically says nobody is allowed to request voter rolls to be cleaned up. ie: making it illegal to do what Tom Fitton was doing.
“(1) REQUIREMENTS FOR CHALLENGES.—No person, other than a State or local election official, shall submit a formal challenge to an individual’s eligibility to register to vote in an election for Federal office or to vote in an election for Federal office unless that challenge is supported by personal knowledge regarding the grounds for ineligibility which is—

I am running out of time and space, but please look at this section:

Literally forming a commission to effectively freeze anyone who says that the election was rigged.
If someone else wants to take over, this is where I stopped:
(If the link is wonky, it's basically at Title III, where it starts talking about grants).
I did notice a bunch of shit towards the end that is the 'WE HATE TRUMP' section. I think it says something about tax returns too.
Write/call your rep. Find them on congress.gov. This is what I wrote; reuse/edit as you like:
I am asking you to vote NO to H.R.1 - For the People Act of 2021 because the bill is unconstitutional. It is breaking Article II Section 1 paragraph 2 of the United States Constitution.
"The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector. "
This obvious and clumsy move by Rep. Jon Sarbanes, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Rep. Zoe Lofgren will only result in a voting system that makes it easier to disenfranchise the law-abiding public and take away State's rights. It's becoming quite clear how important protecting States' rights is in current times.
Further, the Constitutional Authority Statement to make voting laws uses Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 which is NOT about voting, but about TAXES. They are either disingenuous in their grab for more power, or they don't understand the Constitution nearly as well as the American public does.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States
