and swing at this in the next congress next year. a very uphill climb, though, craig. indeed. i want to remind our viewers what s inside the two bills that we ve been talking about that are under consideration, the john lewis voting rights act updates the voting rights act of 1965, requires cities and states to get preclearance from the voting department before changing laws. then there s the freedom to vote act. it outlaws partisan gerrymandering, protects election workers and implements campaign finance reforms. knowing the expected outcome of both of those bills, how are you feeling and what do you hope comes out of this fight? well, craig, we are keeping an even keel here. we know what the likely result of the vote will be.
