"Today in Georgia, @POTUS made it crystal clear: the Senate must find a path forward to enshrine critical voting rights legislation into law. President Biden is to be commended for his strong voice and leadership in this fight as we strive to protect the sacred right to vote.
The need to protect our democracy could not be more urgent, as America faces the most dangerous assault on the vote since Jim Crow. Last year, Republican lawmakers introduced over 440 voter suppression bills across 49 states, with at least 19 states enacting 34 measures into law.
Last year, @HouseDemocrats passed critical voting rights legislation. Yet, Senate Republicans cynically refuse to even begin debate on voting rights legislation -- because they know the only way they can win elections is by barring voters from the ballot box.
The President forcefully declared that the time has come for the Senate to protect the vote and end the Republican nullification of elections. Nothing less than our democracy is at stake."
