President biden announced that Vice President harris will lead the administrations efforts to preserve Voting Rights. The announcement comes after texas democrats begged for federal help after they walked out of their legislature, blocking, but only temporarily, some of the strictest Voting Laws in the nation. There are 61 additional bills moving tHrough 18 State Legislatures. Much of that is fueled by misinformation and lies including Conspiracy Theories by K Qanon and its all pushed by the former big leader, president trump. It was a convincing Electoral College victory, and overnight, new reporting from Maggie Haberman that trump is telling people that he expected to be reinstated as president by august. Seriously.

Rights legislation. With Majority Leader Chuck schumer bringing the for the people act to the floor this tuesday. But the bill will most definitely be filibustered Mcconnell Style despite a compromise from contrarian Joe Manchin which included a ban on gerrymandering, voter i. D.
