Biden 'disrespecting Americans' by claiming they're racist 'if he doesn't get his way': Sen. Lee
Fox News
President Biden wrongly accused political opponents of being racist during his voting rights speech, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, said.
Biden has maintained the act is necessary to protect the right to vote, while Republicans say it prevents state legislatures from enacting election security measures such as voter identification and the prohibition of ballot harvesting.
During his speech, Biden asked the crowd whether they wanted to be "on the side of" Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., or former Alabama Democratic Gov. George Corley Wallace, a staunch segregationist – in terms of Republican opposition to getting rid of the 60-vote filibuster precedent that is essentially blocking the bill from passing on a simple majority vote.
