Bernie Sanders actually said...

"the only way we are going to go forward to protect American democracy, to give people in states all over this country a fair shot at electing who they want is by passing that bill."

"we've got to pass the For the People Act and if no Republican is prepared to support us, we've got to go with it alone."

"What Republicans are doing in an absolutely shameful, disgraceful, cowardly way is making it harder for people of color, for poor people, for young people to vote."

"what Republicans are trying to do now all over this country is stack the deck to make it harder for the people who will vote Democratic to vote"
