3:46Now PlayingIn his highly anticipated speech, President Joe Biden stated he was in favor of getting rid of the filibuster in the Senate.
Biden also urged lawmakers pass The Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. Passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act would require jurisdictions with a history of discrimination to win prior approval from the Justice Department or federal courts in Washington before changing their voting rules.
