Democratic Sens. Raphael Warnock (Ga.) and Dick Durbin (Ill.) are set to reintroduce the Senate version of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2025, which would replace the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
The duo introduced a similar bill last year seeking to "strengthen our democracy by reestablishing preclearance for jurisdictions with a pattern of voting rights violations, protecting minority communities subject to discriminatory voting practices, and defending election workers from threats and intimidation," according to a press release.
Rep. Terri Sewell (D-Ala.) unveiled the House bill earlier this year.
The legislation is named after the prominent civil rights activist and late Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), who died in 2020 at the age of 80.
Their remarks are scheduled to begin at 12 p.m. EDT.
