When people in many States cannot register by postcard. cannot do mailin. have to travel so far. do not know exactly where they can go to register or how to do it. when we make it so difficult for people to register to vote. then I think what we have is an undercutting of democracy. I just want to say to the Senator from Kentucky that I have a tremendous amount of appreciation for this piece of legislation and what the Senator is trying to do. My father was a Jewish immigrant from what used to be the Soviet Union. and I grew up in a family where we really felt democracy was important. I Just want to make it very clear that I believe what the Senator has introduced today is vitally important for our country. It does not make any sense when we make it so difficult for people to vote.
