Justice Department Looking At New Georgia Law Restricting Voting

President Joe Biden says that the Justice Department is looking at the new Georgia Law that restricts voting. Biden slams the new Georgia law, saying that it is a "blatant attack" on the constitution and "Jim Crow in the 21st century" that "must end." 

Civil Rights groups are now suing over the sweeping limits on Georgia voter access. The law includes a ban on giving food and water to voters in line. Biden calls the new restrictions "an atrocity." The White House is deeply concerned about the Georgia lawmaker that was arrested for protesting as the Georgia governor signed the voting restrictions bill. 

Former President Donald Trump praises the new Georgia voting restrictions and says, "too bad these changes could not have been done sooner." 

Senate Democrats and Republicans are at odds over the major voting rights bill as Biden blasts the voter suppression moves as "un-American."
