8. For the People Act

Feb 2021

Using information from Luther's post I went to Congress.Gov and found that the For the People Act (HR1) passed the House, Senate, and was signed by the President. At least I think that's what it meant. Legislation is called a bill until it passes, then it is called an Act and they're calling it an Act. There is information in there about reforming gerrymandering (Sections 2411 thru 2413). I'm going to read it again tomorrow when I'm more rested. Hope I'm not celebrating too soon, but Yoo, Hoo!! (Sure would like to get rid of Madison Cauthorn.)
