#ABCNL #VotingRight #MLKDAY
Everybody needs an ID to vote. Gotta’ a lot of time to get one. This is the same agenda as the 70’s, and America hasn’t solved it yet? Just keep turning the same thing over again, again, again…
MLK was a communist! This holiday shouldn’t be celebrated and these so called protesters should be exiled from our country! They are the real threat to our country!

THE WOKE VERSION OF MLK REALIZED THAT THE VOTE WAS NOT GOING TO CHANGE OUR CONDITION AS A PEOPLE (SO CALLED BLACKS)
Don't let they still your vote !
I just heard that Biden compared Martin Luther King Jr to George Floyd…….Wow……
When I was the young ladies age speaking in this video, I didn't understand the ramifications of voting right……She is not old enough to vote herself…..how can she shame the two democrats who are adults? I hate to see children used…..I do not ever remember Martin having his children involved. So sad. I have a Federal Drivers License which is proof I am a citizen therefore, I have been voting since it was made legal for blacks to vote with no problems. Martin the III is being bamboozed, Did he or his young daugther read the bill???
Okay, I am can't follow this man, I would put money on it, that Martin Luther King Jr III has even read the bill, I hate to see people used. I saw the real Dr Martin Luther King Jr when I was a child and he would be ashamed to what his family is doing now.
Damn abc sucks
How you gonna March for rights while wearing a sign of slavery on your face?
Everyone already is able to vote, democrats want to make it easier to vote many times over with out I.D.
ä¸Â知路德金在天之çµ知ä¸Â知é“他的åŽ人明显替民主党站队æÂ¥æâ€Â¹Ã¥Â˜é€‰ä¸¾çš„游æˆÂ规则呢？
You guys are such liars! Everybody has the right to vote that’s a citizen however, if the democrats get their way they will let illegals vote in this country 🤦ðŸÂ»â€Â♀ï¸Â
You guys are such liars! Joe Bidens state of Delaware has more voting restrictions then conservative states. Also a majority of Americans have NO problem showing their identification to vote! LIARS!
In my opinion
All citizens of these great
UNITED STATES 🇺🇸
Have the right to vote.
Please please please
Tell me what citizen in these great
UNITED STATES 🇺🇸
DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE.
WHO WHO WHO
FINALLY- TIFFANY SPOKE SOMETHING SO TRUE
Many people think about MLK Jr that he gave us peace but if he were alive he would not be celebrating he would be fighting for our civil rights, MLK Jr was a Radical person since he was disappointed at both parties that couldn't give black people rights to vote and he would always be at the Frontlines even if it means dieing for our rights, we should not be celebrating but we should honor and remember him as a radical fighting for us, yet people celebrate him than use his examples and knowledge to fight for our rights.
" Voter's Rights"?
You mean the Bill to allow the Democrats to cheat and steal every election from now on ? An Unconstitutional Bill ?
The trump cult is here, it’s not about ID there’s more to it look it up.
There are many new discriminatory BS laws put in Republican States after 2013 Shelby County v. Holder case, where the States now do not have to go through pre-clearance to make sure the changing voting laws do not include pre-discriminatory intent, so these Republican States can thin out votes for certain groups, EVEN WHEN then had valid ID.
Some states are discouraging voter participation by imposing arbitrary requirements and harsh penalties on voters and poll workers who violate these unfairly set rules targeting specific area with Democratic turnout.
Examples of discriminatory practices:
– In Georgia, lawmakers have made it a crime to provide food and water to voters standing in line at the polls  lines that are notoriously long in Georgia, especially for communities of color.
The long lines were also caused by broken machines provided to these voting areas.
– In Texas, new law was put in so it would be illegal for people with a felony history to vote, even people on parole.
Because of racism in law enforcement and the broader criminal legal system, criminalization of the ballot box disproportionately impacts people of color, who are more likely to be penalized. This method of voter suppression aims to instill fear in communities of color and suppress their voices in the democratic process.
– Some states ban voting only during incarceration, or while on probation or parole. And other states and jurisdictions, like Maine, Vermont, and Washington, D.C., don’t disenfranchise people with felony convictions at all. The fact that these laws vary so dramatically only adds to the overall confusion that voters face, which is a form of voter suppression in itself.
Due to racial bias in the criminal justice system, felony disenfranchisement laws disproportionately affect Black and Brown people, who often face harsher sentences than white people for the same offenses.
– Some states used the process of systematic purge of eligible voters from rolls for illegitimate reasons or based on inaccurate data, and often without adequate notice to the voters. A single purge can stop up to hundreds of thousands of people from voting. Often, voters only learn they’ve been erroneously purged when they show up at the polls on Election Day and it’s too late to correct the error.
– Every 10 years states redraw district lines based on population data gathered in the census, but often states use redistricting as a political tool to manipulate the outcome of elections, called gerrymandering.
– Seven states have strict photo ID laws, under which voters must present one of a limited set of forms of government-issued photo ID in order to cast a regular ballot with no exceptions. These strict ID laws are part of an ongoing strategy to suppress the vote. Over 21 million U.S. citizens do not have qualifying government-issued photo identification, and these individuals are disproportionately voters of color. That’s because ID cards aren’t always accessible for everyone. The ID itself can be costly, and even when IDs are free, applicants must incur other expenses to obtain the underlying documents that are needed to get an ID. This can be a significant burden on people in lower-income communities. Further, the travel required to obtain an ID is an obstacle for people with disabilities, the elderly, and people living in rural areas.
– Here are the researched numbers for who these unfair laws are discriminating against:
– Across the country, 1 in 16 Black Americans cannot vote due to disenfranchisement laws.
– Counties with larger minority populations have fewer polling sites and poll workers per voter.
– In 2018, Latinx and Black Americans were twice as likely as whites to be unable to get off work while polls were open.
– 25 percent of voting-age Black Americans do not have a government-issued photo ID.
– Geographic isolation is a major barrier to Native American voters due to the inaccessibility of nearby polling locations in many reservations. In South Dakota, 32 percent of Native voters cite travel distance as a factor in deciding whether to vote.
– More than one-sixth (18 percent) of voters with disabilities reported difficulties voting in person in 2020.

"Voting Rights Take Center Stage" What, exactly, does the John Lewis Bill do for voting rights that isn't ALREADY a right for U.S. Citizens now? Nobody seems to discuss what's in the bill… all they say is: Democracy is threatened, or something else generically non-descript.
Wtf is this crap? Is there anyone that falls for any of this?
“Racism isn’t dead, but it’s on life support, kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as racists.â€Â
 Thomas Sowell
And now non citizens get to vote how does that make any sense. If your not an American citizen you shouldn't be allowed to vote
If joe won most votes in history….. why the need to make changes? If the system worked so well for him? None of it makes any sense we all need to come together against tyrannical dems and repb. They want us fighting each other
It’s like living in the 1930s all over again.
