Make no mistake: This week, @SenateDems will make clear what happened on January 6th is directly linked to the one-sided, partisan actions being taken by GOP-led state legislatures across the country. We can and must take strong action to stop this anti-democratic march.
@SenSchumer @SenateDems You want to protect our democracy? Pass the voting rights act. Can the people scream any louder?
@SenSchumer @SenateDems If you couldn't get the public to care by now (couldn't even win an election across the river in Virginia), they're not ever going to. I'd shift course.
@SenSchumer @SenateDems The filibuster should end. It was put in place to disenfranchise people of color and to date, it still does. To keep the filibuster is to embrace what it stands for; discrimination against everyone who isn't white. #EndTheFilibuster
@SenSchumer @SenateDems You have no choice. End the filibuster and pass voting rights NOW. You have a lot of work to do in the senate to protect our democracy. If you don’t get it done, we will vote you out.
@SenSchumer @Joe_Bourgeois @SenateDems You gotta kick symbolic a$s, Chuck…this is not a drill.
@SenSchumer @SenateDems It all sounds great but so far, you can't get repubs to vote yes on voting rights. Maybe Murkowski, we'll see, otherwise, they're all in on voter suppression and on destroying US democracy. You need to make certain every single Dem will allow for a carve out for voting rights
@SenSchumer @SenateDems Thank you, @SenSchumer. Allowing Republicans to pass voter suppression and voter nullification laws at the state level by a simple-majority and not allowing the Senate to protect voting rights by a simple-majority is unacceptable. Pass the #FreedomToVoteAct, @SenateDems.
