Original Note:
The Voting Rights Act that the Republican majority SCOTUS recently gutted is quite literally voting rights codified into law. https://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/voting-rights-act Since it was gutted, there has not been the necessary filibuster-proof supermajority in the Senate to pass it, despite concerted efforts to do so https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lewis_Voting_Rights_Act#:~:text=Lewis%20Voting%20Rights%20Advancement%20Act,Democratic%20National%20Committee.
