Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has said he wants to bring up Democrats' voting rights legislation, the For the People Act, for a vote, but that it lacks the 60 votes necessary to pass in the Senate. The bill, which the House has passed, would reform ballot access and campaign finance, and would require states to have two weeks of early voting.
"We will have to see what occurs in the Senate in terms of whether they can get to the 60-vote threshold," he added. "And the Senate is going to have some decisions to make in terms of reviewing their arcane procedures that traditionally have been used to uphold institutions like slavery and Jim Crow."
NY has the most restrictive ballot access laws in the nation. And RepJeffries says nothing about them.
Hahahahaha
I thought Democrats stole votes.
This story was buried.
Stop the Steal! These ‘publicans’ alway does what they accuse Dems of doing. Call it what you will, moonlighting, projected guilt, hypocrisy, treason, all of the above.
It’s amazing how liberals are so keen on making a big deal about their voters being suppressed yet when they get into office they completely disregard their needs. What’s the point of securing voting rights if you ignore the voters? RepJeffries M4A, Green New Deal, student debt
Yet another black politician insulting black voters. Couldn’t possibly figure out how to vote on a Sunday! Lawdy lawd!
Screw Jeffries. Tell him too mind his own business!
cmerfy Jeffries is correct!!!! This is voter suppression!!!
The goal is to have ELIGIBLE voters to vote and have a chain of custody on ballots.
A Call to Protect People and Nature! Thread to watch/read:
Why cause there are rules? It sure beats HR 1 or S 1 that has no kind of security processes, bans ID requirements or any type of verification and nearly anyone from anywhere in the world legally or illegally in the US access to the ballot box.
Who cares what democrats say!
The rise of fascism in the USA...beware!
where's the lie tho
Oh easier to steal an election huh? How would he know? He stole any elections lately?
The insurrection continues!
Accusations of 'shameful and disgrace' like 'thoughts and prayers' to shooting incidents. Tired of it. Dems are completely unfit to lead with a zillion excuses of why they just have to 'throw up their hands' at the Republican juggernaut on its way to throwing them out of power.
The DemocratPlantation cant stand it when you make it harder to cheat
Not accusing, stating fact.
No shit. So do something about it. Asleep at the wheel. Wake-up Democrats.
Democrats must act against this blatant from Republicans. This is insane and shameful.
RepJeffries than do something? The Dems don’t know how to fight
Just so I understand - it is easier to steal an election by complying voters to provide identification? Unlike mass mail in balloting with little signature verification as happened in 2020. Only Democrats can make that assertion with a straight face.
😂 😂 😂
What shithole state restricts the People's right to vote? Can you see the fascist traitors undermining our republic yet?
