My Republican colleagues: all I'm asking you to do today is to not let being partisan keep you from being a patriot. To not sit in silence while voting rights are attacked. To help us meet this moment and protect the right to vote. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
@SenDuckworth Thank you Senator 🙏🏼 #VotingRightsForThePeople
@SenDuckworth Thank you. That took courage to be an American first. A Republican second.
@SenDuckworth @votevets What rights are being attacked?
@SenDuckworth You're asking too much of today's Trump-centric Republicans.
@SenDuckworth Making state functions federal is just more centralization of power and would undoubtedly result in more layers of bureaucracy and still fail miserably at enormous expense. Besides, if you're actually rigging an election, compromising one undetected is much easier than 50+.
@SenDuckworth Thank you for supporting voting rights today on the floor of the Senate. I admire you!
@SenDuckworth Right. Because there was all kinds of cheating in 2020, right? If not…then why is this necessary?
