The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports that Lewis and 195 House colleagues wrote to all 50 secretaries of state, urging them to “serve as advocates for enfranchisement” and oppose laws that would make voting more difficult. He also raised the prospect of Congressional intervention to standardize voting laws in federal elections, though Lewis did not offer specifics and he acknowledged the effort would not go far in the Republican House.
Attention People of Georgia: Please vote John Lewis out! He is past his prime, and the fact that he makes threats that “he” might whatever, shows that he has stayed too long.
