This isn’t about the damn filibuster. It’s bigger than that that. This is about the kind of country we want to have: our democracy is at risk. We must fight Republican attempts-all over the country-to cheat and suppress Americans right to vote. https://t.co/wiq4leUTu6 — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I had the great privilege of testifying before Congress to advocate for the passage of the #ForThePeopleAct. Congress must act now to ensure a truly representative democracy and restore power to the people, where it belongs. Read my full testimony: https://t.co/ENZDKRzBFY — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you, @SenAmyKlobuchar, for inviting me to speak at the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration hearing today. The #ForThePeopleAct will begin to repair damage that’s been caused to voting rights in America over the past decade. Together, we can restore our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats/progressives are uncomfortable with the acquisition - and use - of power. Get over it. The absence of action creates vacuums that will be filled by others less committed to the common good. — PolitiTweet.org

The struggle for voting rights is not about the the filibuster; it’s about our democracy. In considering HR1/S1 the Senate will decide what kind of nation we are to be-a country finally trying to embrace its founding ideals or a nation turning its back on democratic principles. — PolitiTweet.org

A6: I'm grateful that @POTUS is a supporter of the #ForThePeopleAct and #FairMaps. We look forward to working with him to get this bill signed into law. But there's more to do—let’s also pass the John Lewis VRAA to restore protections for voters of color. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org

A5: The redistricting process has already begun - but if the Senate acts now to pass the #ForThePeopleAct, many of the fair districts requirements will be in place for this cycle. That will make the next decade of U.S. politics more fair for all Americans. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Holder @EricHolder
A4: The #ForThePeopleAct will outlaw partisan gerrymandering at the congressional level and mandate independent redistricting commissions for congressional maps. These reforms help take power out of the hands of politicians and return it to the people. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org
Jana Morgan - Pass the #FreedomToVoteAct @JanaLMorgan
Q4: How will the redistricting reforms in #ForThePeopleAct impact the maps being drawn right now? #S1TownHall @DFADCoalition

A3: And partisan gerrymandering is the creation of voting districts that advantage one political party over another. But the bottom line is this: it’s cheating and undemocratic. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Holder @EricHolder
A3: Racial gerrymandering is a form of voter suppression. Maps are drawn to dilute the political power of a particular racial group by concentrating those communities in one district or spreading them across several districts in an effort to dilute their voting power. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org

A2: Gerrymandering is cheating - full stop. Gerrymandering happens when politicians manipulate electoral maps to benefit themselves/their party and special interests - silencing communities and the will of the people. It's undemocratic and we're fighting to end it. #S1TownHall — PolitiTweet.org

Georgia Republicans are rigging the system. They fear they can’t win unless they cheat. Absolutely no justification for repealing this process that 1.3 million voters used in the last election. They are afraid of the voters they say they want to represent. Utterly disgraceful. — PolitiTweet.org

56 years ago-Bloody Sunday-we saw the lengths to which those in public office would go to suppress the right to vote. Today we are engaged in that same fight for voting rights.

Remember this: the needed aid that will flow to the American people to fight the consequences of the pandemic came about because Democrats, over shameful Republican opposition, made it happen. The R’s bet is you’ll forget by next election. Prove them wrong: remember in 2022. — PolitiTweet.org

This is what @DemRedistrict is fighting against. Republicans will try to cheat their way back into the majority-around the country. They are comfortable being a minority party with majority power. Join us in our fight for a fair redistricting process. Our democracy is at stake. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, we lost a leader who spent his life fighting for social justice. Vernon Jordan’s influence was undeniable, and the nation is better because of his work.

After unprecedented voter turnout in the 2020 elections Republicans introduced a record number of voter suppression bills.

Republicans think they can’t win fair elections-so they cheat. The new effort around the country to prevent people from voting is dangerous. This is an attempt to undermine our democracy and cement minority rule. Congress must pass new voting rights bills. https://t.co/M7kpMTOGCg — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans will use-are using-their made up, baseless allegations of voter fraud to put in new restrictions making it harder to vote, suppressing the vote of people who don’t support their tired agenda. Don’t let them do it. Push on your state legislators https://t.co/9Bb2jRpui6 — PolitiTweet.org
