Fmr. Congressman Beto O’Rourke (D-TX) says President Biden’s remarks on protecting voting rights was “a speech the country needed to hear,” but says it lacked a solution. O’Rourke tells Lawrence O’Donnell exceptions to the Senate filibuster rule have been made in the past, and the Senate must now “make an exception for democracy.” Aired on 07/13/2021.

1. Absolutely!

I love Beto!

2. Oh, he's my favorite, too!

He's doing such exceptional work, getting out the vote in the face of rolling back voting rights, and I do hope he runs again - for anything!

4. He is definately a rising star!

I hope he runs again, too - fof anything!

He has the "it" factor.
