In honor of Selma’s ‘Bloody Sunday,’ Biden announces new voting rights initiatives


AJCIn virtual remarks on the anniversary of the march in Selma, Alabama, where John Lewis, Hosea Williams and other activists were violently attacked, President Joe Biden announced plans for a series of executive orders related to expanding voting access.

At the same event Sunday, Georgia’s U.S. Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock received awards honoring historic wins that flipped the balance of power in Washington. Ossoff is the first Jewish senator from Georgia, and Warnock is the state’s first Black senator.

Acknowledging the limited scope of the executive orders, the president also endorsed two election access bills supported by Democrats but facing an uncertain future in the U.S. Senate where Republicans can use the filibuster to block action.
