12 years ago, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. Since then, 94 voter suppression laws (and counting) have been passed. Now, voter suppression isn’t the exception—it’s their strategy. 📣 It's past time for the Senate to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act.

Ted Cruz just said Mr. Abrego has been charged with Human Trafficking. Cruz proclaims "I read every word of that indictment!" Apparently not, because Abrego was not charged with human trafficking. I hope this comes up in a motion to dismiss the charges.
