Congress played a significant role in expanding rights to marginalized Americans during the 20th century. Here are a few examples.
1) 19th amendment- This constitutional amendment gave women in the United States the right to vote.
2) Civil Rights Act 1964- This law ended segregation in public places. This included movie theaters, restaurants, parks, etc.
3) Voting Rights Act of 1965- This law got rid of poll taxes, grandfather clauses, and literacy tests. During the late 19th and early 20th century, all of these were used as a means to prevent African-American citizens from voting. Thanks to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, all of these types of obstacles to stop African-Americans from voting were now illegal.

Georgia was the only state to hold two U.S. Senate elections in 2020. The special election is being held to fill the rest of retired Sen. Johnny Isakson's (R) term.
The runoff elections will determine which party has a majority in the U.S. Senate. Democrats need to win both seats to split control of the chamber 50-50. The vice president (Democrat Kamala Harris beginning in January 2021) casts tie-breaking votes in the Senate. Republicans need to win at least one seat to maintain their majority.
