For the People Act blocked in U S Senate What does that mean for Texas Democrats?

For the People Act blocked in U.S. Senate. What does that mean for Texas Democrats? Fort Worth Star-Telegram 14 hrs ago Eleanor Dearman, Fort Worth Star-Telegram Jun. 23 Republicans in the U.S. Senate blocked an election reform bill that Texas Democrats have increasingly called for following the Texas legislative session, but state lawmakers are still pushing for federal action as a special session looms. U.S. senators voted Tuesday to end debate on the For The People Act, an election reform bill that Texas Democrats said was needed after they killed a state bill that many feared would restrict access to the polls if enacted. The federal bill needed 60 votes in the 50-50 divided chamber to bypass a filibuster.

GOP House Leader: Not Wrong to Require ID to Vote

GOP House Leader: Not Wrong to Require ID to Vote House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that companies pulling out of Georgia over the state’s new voting rights law should first read the bill to find out what the law requires. “Why is it so wrong that somebody has to show an ID, that you have accuracy in elections, or in a Georgia law that you’re allowed to have an election by mail or vote early. I think that’s appropriate. I think people should read bills before they make judgments,” said McCarthy during an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

John Lewis s Final Fight For Voting Rights

John Lewisâs Final Fight For Voting Rights Democrats big reform bill contains 300 pages expanding voting rights that were written by the late civil rights leader. By Paul Blumenthal Illustration: Damon Dahlen/HuffPost; Photos: Getty Images As Congress debates the passage of a sweeping reform bill targeting voting rights, campaign finance, redistricting and ethics, Democrats in the House and Senate have the name of a colleague who is no longer with them on their lips. Rep. John Lewis, who died last year, dedicated his life to expanding and protecting the right to vote. He was attacked for it. And he was elected, in part, to help preserve it. He ultimately helped write part of the bill that Democrats are now pushing to enact.
