Jim Marchant on Government Reform

 

 


Internet pioneer fought efforts to overly regulate it

In 1994 realizing the potential magnitude of the Internet, Jim founded and operated one of the first Internet service provider companies in the country. Being a pioneer in the Internet industry, Jim fought efforts by the Government to overly regulate the new revolutionary technology. And for that reason, Jim founded the Federation of Internet Service Providers of America (FISPA) and served as President for six years.

Don't allow automatic voter registration through DMV

IP1: AN ACT establishing procedures by which the DMV must register a person to vote or update a person's voter registration information.

Las Vegas Review-Journal 3/14/17: The Secretary of State does review registrations but, by statute, cannot check for citizenship. Unless immigrants pay more attention at the DMV than most citizens, IP1 would lead to thousands of non-citizens going on the voter rolls. They could then vote without proving citizenship or showing photo ID.

Gov. Sandoval Veto Letter, 3/22/17: "The current DMV voter registration process provides the necessary balance for voluntary and informed voter registration. [Initiative Petition 1] upsets that balance, removing the element of allowing an individual to initiate the voter registration process, and increasing the possibility of improper registration."

Legislative Outcome: Passed Assembly 27-15-0 on Feb/22/17; Rep. Marchant voted NO; passed Senate 12-9-0 on Mar/13; Vetoed on Mar/21.
