US
Saturday, May 8, 2021 - 1:00pm to Sunday, May 9, 2021 - 12:45pm

Voting rights are under attack across the nation. Legislators have introduced over 360 voter suppression bills in 47 states. Enough is enough.  Join a coalition of nonpartisan organizations honoring John Lewis's legacy by advocating for the passage of U.S. Senate Bill S1 For the People Act which eliminates voter suppression; U.S. House Bill HR4 the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and for removing the filibuster.
 
There will be two starting locations for this event: one in DuPage County at the IBEW Hall in Warrenville and one in Northwest Suburban Cook County in Palatine.

Press conferences at least starting location will begin the event at 1 p.m., followed by a car parade (Votercade) to the DuPage County Government Complex in Wheaton. All the Votercades will converge in Wheaton for the Celebration Village where we will hear from civil rights leaders and federal office holders from the safety of our cars.

All are welcome. This is part of a national day of action. Over 100 cities across the nation are participating.
