WASHINGTON, Jan 18 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate will vote sometime this week on Democratic legislation, which is opposed by Republicans, to reform election laws to expand voters' access to ballots, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Tuesday.
"Across the United States, in 2022 ballot access is not being expanded, it's being repressed and our democracy is not safe, it's under attack," Schumer said in a Senate speech.
