Schumer invokes Cheney in debate over Dems' sweeping voting bill she calls 'unconstitutional'


Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer named Rep. Liz Cheney on Tuesday in debate over Democrats' sweeping voting bill, asking GOP senators to "follow" her "example" -- but Cheney voted against the bill in the House and slammed it as "unconstitutional." With Cheney's condemnations serving as a distraction, according to many, House Republicans plan to vote to remove her as conference chair Wednesday. But Cheney voted against the "For the People Act" in the House of Representatives and tore into it with a statement issued in early March. Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., Tuesday also pointed out the fact that Cheney opposed the sweeping elections bill more than two months ago. I would point out to my colleagues that this newfound hero of Sen. Schumer voted no on H.R.
