Donna Edwards: “Response to question from Hon. Donna F. Edwards, a Representative in Congress from the State of Maryland”

It`s a moral imperative, first of all, to ensure voting rights for all Americans. But it`s also a political imperative.

This is coming from Congress. This is the people's house, you know, saying that they believe that there has been some criminal behavior.

I think Republicans are clearly going to use this 'education and parental involvement and what's taught in schools and what's in libraries' as a mechanism to draw their base voters out for this election.

I mean, really pretty simple things. And they couldn`t get it done. And I think it`s going to hurt them morally because it is the moral thing to do.
