And email  President Biden that he must go above and beyond to implement federal voting rights laws nationwide!

The US House of Representatives on Tuesday Aug 24, passed HR4, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and it is now in the hands of the Senate.  If we want to push back on the slew of anti-voter and anti-democracy legislation across this nation, it is vital the Congress pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. We must ensure that every voter is treated fairly at the ballot box and has equal access to vote. The attack on our freedom to vote must come to an end.

Since the U.S. Supreme Court rolled back key provisions of the Voting Rights Act in the 2013 Shelby County v. Holder decision, states have enacted discriminatory anti-voter bills and policies including illegal voter purges, closing or consolidating polling places in communities of color, and restrictive voter photo ID requirements. In 2021 alone we saw a surge of anti-voter bills like those that the Voting Rights Act was originally enacted to stop.

At this critical moment in our nation’s history, as the freedom to vote remains under threat, we need the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act more than ever! Tell your Senators to vote yes on the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and live up to the full promise of American democracy.
