How Congress is changing electoral law in response to Jan. 6

The House and the Senate are set to pass an overhaul of the Electoral Count Act, the arcane election law that then-President Donald Trump tried to subvert after his 2020 election defeat

The Philadelphia Inquirer
From Senator Amy Klobuchar: “I’m never going to forget the shattered glass on the floor of the Capitol or the spray paint on the walls. But I will also remember walking at 3 a.m. to affirm the people’s will and certify the election. We must pass the Electoral Count Reform Act.” #omnibus #electoralcountreformact
