It is a sad day when two members of the Democratic Caucus are prepared to allow the Freedom to Vote Act to fail and undermine the future of American democracy. I hope very much they will reconsider their positions.
@SenSanders It’s a sad day when the stock market is down another 1% and not a single member of Congress has offered their condolences. The silence speaks volumes
