Sen. Martin Heinrich says it is more important to protect “constitutional rights of lawful Americans to be able to cast a ballot†than the filibuster.

#TheBreakdown #Filibuster #MartinHeinrich
Not so long ago the left wanted the filibuster now in power they want to end it so they can cheat and stay in power to be your supreme ruler and when they lose power they will want to bring it back. Do you approve of what biden is doing to the country?
I love Kyrsten
Trump got Republicans to do whatever he wanted by saying "Obey me or my voters will kill you and your family." It's legal. It works
One needs an ID to buy Sudafed and not to vote? Sounds like one political party
could care less about secured elections.
Mitch calling manchin the devil â‰ï¸ÂÂ🤆Priceless ðŸ¤ÂÂ🤣🤣âÂÂâ€â€ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚Ââ€â€ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚Ââ€â€ÃƒÂ¢Ã‚Ââ€â€
He thinks rural Indians are dancing around a fire in war paint and head dresses.
No voting ID is a stupid idea! LAWFUL citizens must have IDs!
– Anti-Gerrymandering
– Election Day Holiday
– Requiring Voter ID
– 15 Days of Consecutive Early voting
(None of these things are extreme, and if there’s issue, you should debate. The GOP obstructed a common sense bill – I’m never supporting them again ever.)
I agree that we need to pass voting rights bill before the next election, and I also agree with Kyrsten Sinema’s reasoning about needing the filibuster to prevent the craziness of passing laws and then the next party repealing laws. I propose that we write the filibuster (like 52 or 55 instead of 60) into the bill. This will get Sinema/Manchin’s full support. And then Schumer invoking nuclear option to get this bill past the filibuster. After this, the nuclear option won’t exist anymore because filibuster would be law, and senate would need to get enough votes to get past future filibuster to repeal any law.
Republicans you need to vote your Republicians constituents out they do not care about you they care about staying in there seats….they don't give a Damn about your family your income to move up, your health for you and your families, your love ones who may get charge for something they didn't do, taking away your voting rights away to keep you MEDIUM and POOR Republicians in hole not letting you to help your family..you must get these Congressmen Republicians out NOW immediately,😡😠VOTE gone
A country where one may stand in line for up to seven hours to vote is not what I would call a full democracy. I live in Denmark and the longest I’ve ever had to wait to vote was around 15 minutes.
I would also not call it democratic that people even have to register to vote and can be purged from the voter rolls without even being aware of it! In most countries you only get a letter asking you to confirm if you’re voting or not. In Denmark you just get a letter that allows you to vote.
Abolish the filibuster and pass the For the People Act.
Can't get what I want working with others; so I'll act like a child and ask my friends to give me what I want
Grossly obscene Bills like this one are why the filibuster has been part of a democracy for centuries and should continue to be available to the minority party. Apparently the socialist democrats radical left agenda targeting minorities has its limits! ðŸ˜â€Â
So short sighted…
He’s right, the days of the filibuster are numbered!

Biden's Voting Access Bill and For the People Act were created to stop republican vote suppression.
A Vote Audit is being carried out by Cyber Ninjas and it is their first ever audit. Only in America.
Democrats and Republicans like to think they are so different. The rest of the world see Americans.
"I know it's comical to watch what's going on here in Arizona." – K. Hobbs Arizona Sec of State..
Republicans are not true Americans; they're a crazed power-hungry subset.
I’n Georgia they made It illegal to give people waiting In line food and water…
No one is having their right to cast a ballot removed. This is fear mongering.
This bill is dangerous and continues to patronize black and brown Americansâ€â€Âwho overwhelmingly support voter ID laws. How the democrats continue to ignore the will of the people, especially minorities, is patronizing and racist.
Republicans destroying our democracy including anti-American DINOs 😳
