Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

With the minority veto created by the no-effort filibuster, there was no chance to get that bill through the Senate. I worked to get 50 Democrats on board with changes that would restore the Senate’s old style of doing business, but unfortunately in the end we fell 2 votes short. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

That bill, which became the Freedom to Vote Act, stops billionaires from buying elections, ends partisan gerrymandering, protects our freedom to vote, and stops officials from overturning election results. The attack on our democracy didn't end on 1/6. This bill is our defense. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley

I’m laser focused on fixing our broken Senate so that we can make progress on protecting our fundamental freedom to vote by passing bills like the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the Freedom to Vote Act. — PolitiTweet.org
