Chuck Schumer said "Senate Republicans have signed their names in the ledger of history along Donald -- alongside Donald Trump, the big lie and voter suppression. Today, every single Democratic senator stood together in the fight to protect the right to vote in America. The Republican leader uses the language and the logic of the Southern senators in the `60s who defended states rights this vote. I`m ashamed to say is further evidence that voter suppression has become part of the official platform of the Republican Party." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
