        Marvelous to witness and celebrate history w/ local advocates in the Capitol and “America’s Voting Rights Champion” (my pops’ college roommate) @RepJohnLewis. On to Senate and for @POTUS’ signature; #MAGA includes the righteous effort to #LiberateDC with #DCStatehood. @MsFreeDCpic.twitter.com/lQY8IxWrKW – at United States Capitol Building

        Even though the #ForthePeopleAct is important #ElectionReform, many politicians, elected using the current system, have no incentive to vote for H.R. 1. They are owned by Black money, PACs, and corporate donors. They owe their elections to gerrymandering and voter suppression.

        Republican members of Congress, even those who are not "owned" by donors and lobbyists, have even less reason to support H.R. 51 which would essentially add another "blue state."
