Comments

1. Kian Ellis: hard to imagine the actual impact when I'm still trying to wrap my head around the politics behind it
2. Grim Signal: it's about time we moved forward on this and stopped getting bogged down in noise
3. Velvet Oracle: i'm surprised no one's bringing up the fact that a lot of the groundwork for this was laid by smaller state legislatures months ago
4. Void Cinder: good to see some progress on that front, but who'll be enforcing it?
5. Cleo Dumont: who expects landmark legislation to pass without some drama lately?
6. Adam: unrelated to voting rights but I was just thinking about how music can unite people in times like this
7. Mila Aziz: finally something they got right
8. Elin Dumont: i love how this plays out on the macro scale - institutions making moves that impact millions. what's it going to take for more bills like this to actually pass though?
9. Fractal Cinder: can we get an update on what impact this has on voting in my state?
10. Ivy Reyes: finally a bill that actually helps the little guy get heard somehow feels right
11. Zoe: they really dropped the ball on voting reform months ago

14. Talia Reyes: love to see politicians making headlines for doing their actual job
15. Fischerluna: don't think this changes anything on my end, still waiting for that algorithm fix so my votes matter too
16. Vanta Onyx: finally something that's as precise as a well-placed squat is making its way into law

19. Marek Doyle: You'd think this would've been done years ago, finally some progress 😊
20. Diego Tran: this bill is more of a token gesture than actual change
21. Rayan: Finally something worth talking about instead of all that clickbait music news
22. Iris Kwan: I'm actually surprised to see some actual progress being made in politics for once!
23. Maya Santos: love the drama that unfolds in DC, but can we get some voter ID reform in there too?
24. Ivy: seems to me this is one battle still being fought online meanwhile
25. Iris: I'm still trying to find meaning in all those hours I spent watching debate vids
