"Today, @SenateGOP again undermined the sacred right to vote and harmed their own constituents when they blocked the #JohnLewisVotingRightsAct.

While Republicans greenlight this assault on the ballot for their own political gain, Democrats are fighting back.

Right now, our nation faces the most sinister and severe campaign of voter suppression since Jim Crow. Across the country, GOP state legislators and GOP-appointed judges are silencing the voices of voters.

The House-passed Voting Rights Advancement Act empowers @TheJusticeDept to block voting restrictions imposed by states with dark histories of discrimination & ensure voters have fair access to the ballot -- a cause to which our beloved John Lewis devoted his entire life.

Democrats will not relent until every American can have a say in the destiny of our democracy."
