Let me pause to talk about Rep. Sensenbrenner, who told me plainly: “I wanted to get it done while I was still there as its supporter ... If the expiring sections were allowed to go out into space, it would have been much harder to reinstate them.” (6/?) https://t.co/Ijyl2JB6cr — PolitiTweet.org

The Repub senators knew that if SCOTUS overturned VRA preclearance, it would be hard to restore it, b/c fellow Republican Jim Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin —a true supporter of voting access— would no longer be chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. (5/?) https://t.co/Ijyl2JB6cr — PolitiTweet.org

He knew this! So Sensenbrenner, a White Republican, teamed up with *CBC CHAIR* Melvin Watts (who went on to be an Obama appointee) to be “bipartisan partners in crime" to protect the VRA. The kind of teamwork that brings a tear to my jaded eye. (7/?) https://t.co/Ijyl2JB6cr — PolitiTweet.org
