Congressional Democrats vowed Thursday to combat what they view as Republican efforts to suppress votes from minorities, the elderly, and the young in next year’s elections.
“We believe one of the most perverse policies that are being pursued in our states around the country are efforts to subvert Americans’ basic right to vote,” House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer told reporters. “We intend to heighten America’s focus on these efforts at undermining the basic American right to vote, and to have their vote counted.”
