Biden Casts Doubt on Passing Voting Rights Bills, Vows to Fight
Показать описание
President Joe Biden cast doubt on whether long-shot voting rights legislation can pass Congress but said he’d continue fighting to win approval as long as he’s in the White House.
“I hope we get this done,” Biden told reporters after meeting with Senate Democrats on Thursday behind closed doors. “The honest-to-God answer is: I don’t know if we get this done.”
Biden said if the measure fails in the Senate, he’ll try again.
“As long as I have a breath in me, as long as I’m in the White House, as long as I’m engaged at all, I’m going to be fighting” for legislation to counter measures in Republican-led states that limit voting rights, he said.
His comments came after Democrat Kyrsten Sinema said Thursday she opposes a Biden-backed effort to change Senate rules to win approval of the legislation, depriving the president of key support in a chamber divided 50-50. Republicans oppose the voting rights measures.
