And then, take what is in h.r.1, for the people act, and pass it. thats all we want out of the h.r.4 is what we call preclearance. and the senate can do that, if they apply it to all 50 states. they would not need the record thats being developed on the house side. that we cannot get done before september. >> uh-huh. well, lets hope that theyre listening. um, i want to ask you, now, about a -- this really contentious primary going on in ohio for marcia fudges house seat. you were supporting chan...

Meaningful, long-term way with senate dynamics as they currently are, senator? >> yeah, absolutely. 50 democrats have to get into the room and say what path are we going to take in order to make sure that we set this national set of standards so that everyones right to vote is protected, so that the coming redistricting is not resulted in gerrymandering that destroys equal representation, and how we take on this insidious, vicious dark money that funds these attack ads all over the country where...
