Democrats FAIL To Pass Voting Rights Bill
Рет қаралды 41,342
Күн бұрынSenate Democrats made the first step in highlighting the unwillingness of their Republican colleagues to pass voting rights and filibuster reform bills, as both were struck down as expected. Even though this was the first time the Senate has debated the bills, it was not enough to convince Republicans, Joe Manchin, and Kyrsten Sinema to lift their blockade.

"Senate Democrats made an impassioned case on Wednesday for legislation to counter an onslaught of new voting restrictions around the country, but they failed to overcome a Republican blockade or unite their own members behind a change in filibuster rules to pass it.
Though the twin defeats were never in doubt, Democrats pushed forward in an effort to highlight what they called a crisis in voting rights and to underscore the refusal of Republicans to confront it. They did succeed in forcing the Senate for the first time to debate the bill, leading to hours of raw and emotional arguments on the floor over civil rights, racism and how elections are conducted.
“The people of this country will not tolerate silencing,” said Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota and a chief author of the voting bill. “I think by voting this down, by not allowing us even to debate this, to get to the conclusion of a vote, that is silencing the people of America, all in the name of an archaic Senate rule that isn’t even in the Constitution. That’s just wrong.”"

@Fred Nurke Racists? That's funny, if I remember my history it was the Republican Party that freed the slaves and whose majority also voted for the Civil Rights Act in the 1960s. And the last time I checked there were no Republicans that were grand Wizards of the klu Klux Klan who were also US senators. Can the Democrats say the same? It seems to me that the Democrats are the _true_ racist party of these United States and the only party I might add that actually tried to destroy the constitution and the very Union itself, so I find it hilarious when Democrats try to wrap themselves in altruism and patriotism. Like the old saying goes when you point your finger at someone there are three more pointing back at _you...._

Yeah , the John Lewis voting rights act doesn't have anything to do with voter ID. 🙄 The right-wing media uses voter ID as a red herring to distract from the other voter suppression and voter subversion tactics they're engaging in. The John Lewis voting rights act banned racial discrimination in voting practices , required states with a history of discriminating against voters and suppressing the vote to require approval to change their election process , allows federal observers to monitor elections in states to make sure they're not rigging elections , requires public notice for changes in voting laws , etc. I wonder why Republicans would oppose that ? Oh , they're suppressing the vote to win elections ...🙄

Without changing the Constitution, the math is what it is, but before the Republican Party could become significant, the previous second party had to die out.

Cenk and Ana, I have question for both of you. Do you think Bernie Sanders would be in a better position right now? Just think about it, if Bernie was president and had a 3 seat majority in the house and 50/50 senate with 2 DINO'S he would'nt be able pass the sames things Joe Biden is trying to pass. Let's be honest, the more you guys attack Biden the more your handing power to the Republicans. Why can't you guys help promote candidates that are really progressive like Tim Ryan and John Fetterman. If you guys help get them elected and stop attacking Biden guess what the Fillibuster will be gone!!
