On 3/3/21 at 11:06 PM EST
A sweeping election reform bill just made its way through the House of Representatives with zero Republican support.
H.R. 1 also known as the For the People Act passed the chamber on Wednesday in a 220 to 210 vote, marking the second time it s been approved by the Democrat-controlled chamber in two years. Two Republicans did not vote.
The roughly 800-page reform bill would touch on nearly every piece of the electoral process, including voter access and campaign finance. It would also require each state to establish an independent commission to redraw district lines based on the census.
