Senator Ted Cruz Says Making It Easier To Vote Is Actually 'Jim Crow 2.0'

Republicans are trying to block the For the People Act, Democrats' top-priority legislative package.
Senate Republicans issued a slew of cataclysmic warnings on Tuesday as they tried to sink voting reform, claiming the Democrats’ top-priority package would dismantle faith in democracy and suppress millions of votes ― all as their own party pushes voting limitations nationwide. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) called the bill “Jim Crow 2.0.” It’s an absurd comparison: Jim Crow laws were aimed at making it near-impossible for Black Americans to vote; Democrats’ bill (the For the People Act) would make voting easier, streamline registration processes and prevent partisan gerrymandering, among other reforms.
