January 15, 2022 >>> Did y’all hear Steve Inskeep of @npr interview Trump this week? Trump said of the “rigged” 2020 election, “this is far from over.” The constitution is very specific about voting rights. Amendment XV rightly added voter protection for “race, color, or previous condition of servitude” in 1870. Amendment XIX added voting protections based on sex. We need stronger federal voter protections from states making it harder for folks to vote. Now, more than ever, we must pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Congress: do your job.
