SPECIFIC LWVUS ACTION ALERTS, 2019-2020:

 

The next President & Congress must enact democracy reform

The American people are tired of a government that serves only the wealthy and corporate interests. We demand a democracy that works for all of us. Sign your name to show the next administration and Congress that Day 1 is for Democracy. Demand that the For People Act is a first priority of the next administration and Congress.   [LWVUS in partnership with Common Cause and other organizations]
