President Biden held his first formal press conference after more than two months in office. Biden praised his approach to the border crisis, and dodged questions about China. He also hinted that the filibuster should be amended to pave a way for new bills about voting rights and gun control.
Biden also touched on future elections. This comes as the Democrats massive election reform bill, HR1 or “For the People Act” is still sparking controversy. The nearly 800-page election reform package seeks to impose country-wide requirements on voting procedures, such as mandating automatic voter registration and making it legal for mail in voting across the whole country without the need to provide photo ID to get an absentee ballot. Democrats tout it as “pro democratic” and “anti corruption” and have dubbed it “For the People Act”.
