The House just passed the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act. Now the Senate needs to do the same. It's the best way to protect the right to vote, end partisan gerrymandering, and restore crucial parts of the Voting Rights Act.
@BarackObama The right to vote was already there; the problem was with the process of execution.
@BarackObama If what people do is being controlled and it is not regarded within the context of discussion on politics, new legislation is not going to help; it will only streamline exacerbation of the problem.
@tyrekecorrea @BarackObama Correct. The right to vote WAS there. It no longer will be for large groups of people. The vast majority poor and POC. It is threatened by groups that have clearly stated they want fewer people to vote- specifically people who are less likely to vote for them.
@tyrekecorrea @BarackObama What? The right to vote was there until Republicans stripped it down. So what do you mean? Past the SAME JOHN LEWIS voting act!!!
