The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act

The one they wouldn't do away with the Jim Crow Filibuster to pass? I don't count things that democrats worked with republicans to block as accomplishments.

The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act "The bill would restore and strengthen parts of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, most notably its requirement for states and jurisdictions with a history of voting rights violations to seek federal approval before enacting certain changes to their voting laws."

yeah, sounds horrible.

Sounds like something democrats made sure didn't pass.

They prefer their filibuster over protecting democracy.
