Sen. Tammy Baldwin
Jan. 19, 2022
Congressman Kweisi Mfume's Statement on the Senate's Failure to Pass the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act
Rep. Kweisi Mfume
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: In 2006, the Senate voted 98-0 to reauthorize and strengthen the Voting Rights Act. 16 current Senate Republicans voted yes. It wasn't a federal takeover of elections then, and it isn't now. But the Big Lie stands in the way, consuming what was once the Party of Lincoln.
Sen. Dick Durbin

Beatty Leads Lawmakers to Senate, Calls on Senators to Advance Voter Protection Legislation
Rep. Joyce Beatty
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: Sadly, many Republican lawmakers would rather repeat the twice impeached former President's "Big Lie' than face his wrath. And tonight, Senate Republicans used the filibuster once again to kill legislation that would protect Americans' right to participate in our democracy.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: The vast majority of Republicans refuse to join Democrats in protecting voting rights for one simple reason: Donald Trump sets their agenda and dissenters pay a price. Endorse the Big Lie or endure his fury, that is their choice. And it is shaking the pillars of our democracy.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Durbin: To Restore The Power Of The Voting Rights Act Is To Restore The Promise Of America
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: The Republican-led attacks on voting rights and the fair administration of our elections are shaking the pillars of our democracy. Without federal action to combat this threat, the credibility of our elections and the peaceful transfer of power are at stake.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: Senate Democrats won't be deterred With no support from the Senate GOP--many denying voter suppression even exists--we faced an uphill battle in this vote But every Senator's now on record Americans see who's for voting rights It only strengthens our resolve to protect voting
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: Senator McConnell has no appetite for substantive debate. If he really believes that there is no evidence of voter suppression in the actions of nearly 20 states across the nation, then he would feel comfortable defending that position on the Senate floor.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 19, 2022
Cassidy: Democrats' Election Bill is a Power Grab, Distraction from Real Crises
Sen. Bill Cassidy
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: The left's fake panic over voting is collapsing. Less than 0.5% of Americans say this is a top priority. Even the media is pointing out that Georgia's law is more open than Delaware or New York. And more citizens say voting laws are too loose than say they are too restrictive.
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Jan. 19, 2022
"Just the Kind of Shortsighted Power Grab this Body Was Built to Stop"
Sen. Mitch McConnell

Sen. Ed Markey
Jan. 18, 2022

Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 18, 2022
Cantwell Defends Voting Rights on the Senate Floor, Highlights Success of Washington State Vote-By-Mail, Business Leader Support
Sen. Maria Cantwell
Jan. 18, 2022
Tweet: The GOP shouldn't be allowed to sit in their offices and block voting rights They should have to come to the floor and defend anti-voting rights positions The Senate has an opportunity this week to do that--a vote to change Senate rules to promote public debate on voting rights
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Jan. 18, 2022
Tweet - "When I first met John Lewis, we were 19-year-old college students who came together in 1960 to found the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. I'm pleased @FaithandPolitic is furthering John's legacy with this first cohort of the John Robert Lewis Scholars and Fellows."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Jan. 18, 2022
Tweet: The Senate is now officially debating the Freedom to Vote & John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Acts on the floor Senators were elected to debate and vote--especially on issues like voting rights This is a step forward to put everyone on record We'll keep fighting until we win

Durbin To Senate Republicans: Join Us In Defending American Democracy
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 18, 2022
Tweet - "Tomorrow, the Senate is going to be casting an enormously important vote about whether we preserve the foundations of democracy. As of now, two Democrats will join the Republicans to vote against us and we will lose that vote. Let me tell you why I hope they change their minds."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
Jan. 17, 2022
Tweet: #MLKDay is a day of reflection, a chance to envision an America where every American is truly "free at last." But it is also a day of action. And I hope we see action on the Senate floor soon. We must do everything we can to pass the #FreedomToVote Act and John Lewis #VRAA.
Sen. Dick Durbin
Jan. 17, 2022
Tweet: Today as we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.: The fight for voting rights is not over. I was honored to join @BAM_Brooklyn for #MLKDay to stand together to say that this fight is just too important. We won't stop fighting until we win.

Rep. Sewell Participates in D.C. Peace Walk March, Speaks at Rally with Martin Luther King III and Family
Rep. Terri Sewell
Jan. 17, 2022
Tweet - "As the voting rights bill finally comes to the floor of the Senate, there is only one vote which will really matter. Will 50 Democrats vote to override the filibuster, protect American democracy and pass the bill, or will Manchin and Sinema vote with the GOP and let the bill die?"
Sen. Bernie Sanders
Jan. 17, 2022
Tweet - "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a man of integrity and determination who fought hard to ensure that no one in America would be denied a voice in our elections. As we celebrate him today, I call on my colleagues to honor him and pass critical voting rights legislation. #MLKDay"
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto
Jan. 15, 2022
Tweet - "This is what the undermining of American democracy looks like. This is what is taking place all across the country. This is why it is an outrage that two Democratic senators have joined Republicans in refusing to pass the Freedom to Vote bill."
Sen. Bernie Sanders
Jan. 15, 2022
Tweet - "Any attack on voting rights is a threat to our democracy. The John Lewis Voting Rights Act and Freedom to Vote Act are critical to protecting the right to vote and it's time the Senate passes these bills."
