GOP Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT-District 4 “Projection” By Democrats About Voter ID Is “Self-Bigotry Of Low Expectations” Posted By Tim Hains
Clarence Burgess Owens is a Republican politician, and former professional football player elected in 2020.
Rep. Burgess Ownes testified at a Senate hearing on whether voter ID laws represent a “New Jim Crow,” particularly mentioning that he is insulted when Democrats characterize black voters as “not smart enough” to get identification.
“The true racism is this: the projection of the Democratic party on my proud race. It’s called the self bigotry of low expectation,” Rep. Owens said Tuesday. “President Biden said of the Georgia law ‘This is Jim Crow on steroids.’ With all due respect, Mr. President, you know better.”
