been talk about this since the election, since the election and you saw these republican legislatures in red states changing voting rights requirements, you know, they re going to do something, the time to do it is now. they ve been talking about this for a while. they need to take some action. then if manchin and sinema both claim that they support doing something on voting rights but they won t change the filibuster, what are they doing right now to get republicans on board for something? john? that s a huge question. manchin has talked to other republicans, he s talked to republicans in the senate, and manchin is a former secretary of state in west virginia, he feels very strongly on this issue. he didn t initially support the john lewis voting rights act, he forced democrats in order to get 50 supporters he forced schumer and the democrats to draft another bill, the freedom to vote act, which he supports.
