Today, Democrats in our General assembly are calling this special session not to serve the people, no, but to serve themselves. That I've also seen in another country. They want to dismantle the very independent redistricting commission that Virginians voted for in a bipartisan majority just in 2019. That commission was born out of a rare, a rare moment of unity when Democrats and Republicans alike agreed that voters imagine that should choose their own representatives and not the other way around. (09:31–09:42)
