    gets a hearing in the Senate this week. Leading up to it, I've been seeing a lot of hot takes on the bill from the voting community. I'll respond here to a few of them. TL;DR: can & must pass and its a necessary partner to the John Lewis VRA.

    . on the Republicans who oppose due to D.C.'s electorate: "We should all understand that the implication of that is constitutionally relevant, that because it's lopsided in favor of one party that those people shouldn't be represented in Congress."

    In the last election, anti-democracy forces worked overtime to limit voting rights: purging eligible voters, limiting who could vote by mail, reducing ballot drop-off locations, & closing polling places so that many voters had to wait in hours-long lines

    Republican attacks on voting rights are only going to get worse and if the 2024 election only comes down to one or two states in the Electoral College, they'll absolutely try to overturn it.

    New: GOP Rep. Jody Hice, who's pushed election conspiracies and false claims about Georgia's elections, has announced a run for Secretary of State. Hice tried to challenge Georgia's Electoral College votes, joined a failed SCOTUS lawsuit and other anti-democratic steps.
