Prayer breakfasts, marches, parades, and an uptick in volunteer efforts to support the annual Day of Service have remained staples of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
But the late civil rights icon family has asked that observers strike a different tune in 2022.
King’s family has requested no celebration unless federal lawmakers pass voting rights legislation, a task that appears out of reach as President Joe Biden and several Democrats have faced stiff Republican opposition.

It’s certainly a holiday we could forego then.
federalizng elections is not voting rights legislation
this doublethink propaganda is ridiculous
The only voting rights legislation needed is voter ID requirements. Everyone has the voting right to not be outvoted by fraudulent ballots.
Just ask ruby and her daughter how much fraudulent votes they committed.
Cannot really think of a way to celebrate an assassination in any way shape or form as it is, so I’m good with it.
This holiday is permanently over then…
Wasn’t being honored with the worst street in every city enough???
Sounds like fake news again. King’s family has supported Trump in the past. More likely they want to clean up our fake elections
How about we stop celebrating it from now on. Lets face it, MLK was never a legitimate reason for a holiday in the first place. Sorry if the truth is offensive.
minorities aren’t allowed to vote? When did that happen?
Oh my no celebration unless you are allowed the STEAL elections from now on!! REALLY well F you we don’t care about the stupid celebrations anyway!!
Voter ID at polling places.
Indelible purple finger ink after voting.
Purge all roles after every presidential election.
Everybody must re-register in person with birth certificate and a current photo ID.
No drop boxes.
No mail-in ballots. Rare absentee ballots permitted with valid reason approved by a voter registrar.
No ballot harvesting.
No print-at-home ballots.
No unconstitutional last minute voting rules changes in contravention of state constitutions.
Paper backup to electronic ballots.
No private companies writing voting software. All voting software must be open source projects.
One single Election Day nationwide.
All ballots counted on Election Day.
Its a shame what that family has become, asking for stolen and fraudulent elections.
Just propaganda. Some of MLK’s family are Republicans.
Oh. Ok
Since Joe said he was thinking of trying to legislate again and was dedicating the effort to the memory of a multiple felon, drug addict, porn actor, shouldn’t George Floyd’s family have some say? FAT!
I first thought this was a Babylon Bee headline.
