Day 778 item on House Bill has factual error

bsubei opened this issue · comments

The House passed a sweeping voting rights, campaign-finance and ethics reform package.
The legislation includes expansion of early voting, redistricting reform, making Election Day a federal holiday,

The referenced Politico article has a correction:

CORRECTION: A previous version of this story said the legislation made Election Day a federal holiday. That provision was removed from the bill before the final vote.

EDIT: the other reference (NPR) makes no mention of the federal holiday removal, so now I don't know what to believe...
