And Republicans, who are the party of unfettered capitalism; the party where"money talks and principle walks." Heading into the November election, it is vital to pass laws to protect election workers, same-day registration, and early voting. It is also necessary to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which directly addresses the state legislatures' electoral power grab.
