Barbara Lee: We Need H.R. 1 and H.R. 4 So People Aren't 'Totally Oppressed' and 'Not Part of This Country's Democracy'

On Saturday's broadcast of MSNBC's "Velshi," Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) stated that there are those who "want to keep others in a place where we're totally oppressed and totally not part of this country's democracy." She added that this goes back to voting rights and we need to pass H.R. 1 and H.R. 4 "so that we can have a system that allows the voices of people who have not been heard to be heard through their elected officials."
