The resolution expresses the Alabama Legislature's support for two significant pieces of congressional legislation: the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act. The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act was reintroduced in the 119th Congress by U.S. Representative Terri Sewell and U.S. Senators Dick Durbin and Raphael Warnock, coinciding with the 60th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday. The Freedom to Vote Act, which includes contributions from the late Congressman John R. Lewis, was previously introduced in the 117th Congress.

In addition to endorsing these legislative efforts, the resolution honors the legacy of Congressman John R. Lewis, emphasizing his lifelong commitment to civil and human rights. The Alabama Legislature encourages the state and the nation to engage in "good trouble, necessary trouble," reflecting Lewis's dedication to advancing voting rights and social justice.
