In the end, we got every Democrat on board except two, and they will not be returning to the Senate. And so I remain hopeful that we'll find a way to pass voting rights. So do you think Senator Schumer needs to, you know, commit to actually either putting that reform in place or commit to getting rid of the filibuster altogether? (24:15–24:22)
