I think we know that and that is the acknowledgment that is made and the need to be authorized this act and how incredibly important it is to do that. I want to go to those practical questions which you. I think we have recently seen some new barriers to voting and seen and insensitive decision with some states. There are things like strict voter i. D. Requirements, things like shortening time periods people can register to vote or can vote early.
