Passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act is urgent. These bills represent the first real opportunity for voting rights since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act a decade ago. We don't know when we'll have this opportunity again.
We must be firm, resolute, and unyielding in our defense of the right to vote and to have that vote counted.
We must have debate and a vote on both the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act.
