"This week, I signed onto the Amicus Brief in support of State of Texas v. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, et al. I didn't come to this decision lightly or flippantly, and I didn't make this decision based on emotion or even frustration with the election outcome. I came to this decision because trust in the very foundation of our Republic is at stake.
"Americans are losing faith in our systems, specifically our elections, at an alarming rate. I've heard from numerous constituents over the past four years, on all sides of the political spectrum, concerned about these very things -- interference in elections by foreign entities, voting irregularities, failure by election officials to follow current laws in place, and lack of security in absentee voting.
"In this Amicus Brief, we outline multiple occasions where the state of Michigan -- specifically the Secretary of State -- subverted Michigan election law and constitutional precedent which in turn created a crisis of confidence in Michigan. Every American needs to know that every legal vote is counted -- and only legal votes. This can only be achieved if those administering our elections are held to the highest standard. As with many elections in the past, our case deserves to be heard by the Supreme Court, and Michiganders deserve to know their concerns are being addressed."
