What's this?

There's a real possibility that it does.

Many of the rallies are combining with voter registration and 2018 elections are seven months away. I think there is enough energy there to carry through to the fall. The Senate is a bridge too far, but a Democratic House can bring forward legislation and keep it in the public dialogue until the 2020 election.

It would be great, over the next two years, if multiple state legislatures could pass a voter regislration package like Washington State just did.
