Now is the time for the U.S. Senate to do the right thing and call a vote on crucial voting rights legislation. Future generations are counting on us to protect our democracy. I wrote out some thoughts about why this is so important. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…
The filibuster has no basis in the Constitution, and in recent years, it has become a routine way for the Senate minority to block important progress on issues supported by the majority of voters. But we can’t allow it to be used to block efforts to protect our democracy.
@BarackObama Thank you Former President Barack Obama for being my idol and hero!!!
@BarackObama Indeed. These voter suppression laws were passed by simple majorities in the states. Why can’t voting RIGHTS be extended by a simple majority in the congress?
@BarackObama Thank you Mr President. Absolutely zero legal or constitutional reason the majority of senators should not be able to proceed with this bill.
@BarackObama Democracy is a daily construction, and what we have seen unfortunetely in the United States since coronavirus pandemia was a very concerned desrespect with the individual rights. Almost a tiranny. Our hope is the Supreme Court that did not accept at all Fauci lies .
@BarackObama Defending our democracy should be top priority for every American patriot. #DefendDemocracy reps4biden.com/products/defen…
@BarackObama If the voting rights legislation is not passed and Republicans take the Congress, it will be the end of Democracy.
@BarackObama We so appreciate you, sir My drawing is for you!
