House Democrats criticized President Donald Trump's voter fraud commission on Tuesday and demanded that co-chair Kris Kobach step down ahead of the commission's first public meeting on Wednesday, according to NBC News.
Fifteen Democratic members of the House Judiciary Committee, as well as state election officials, privacy and civil rights advocates, voiced concerns at a voting rights forum about the Commission on Election Integrity's recent letter requesting sensitive voter information.
Top Democrats called on Vice President Mike Pence, the panel's chair, to dismiss Kobach, Kansas' secretary of state and an advocate for strict voter identification laws.
