John,

Today, the House passed a new piece of voting rights legislation: The Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act. As the name suggests, it’s a merger of the Senate’s Freedom to Vote Act and the House’s John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. But the bill has several important new provisions as well. In my latest piece, I’ve laid out what these changes mean for fighting voter suppression and combatting election subversion.
