It's time to restore the VRA (Voting Rights Act)

Action Alerts

Every day, the freedom to vote is under attack. The League is proud to support the reintroduction of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (JLVRAA), vital legislation that is needed to fully restore and modernize the VRA and ensure that discriminatory voting policies are stopped in their tracks. Tell your members of Congress to protect the freedom to vote and support the passage of the JLVRAA. Equality — and our democracy — cannot wait.

Unite and Rise 8.5

Unite & Rise 8.5 is backed by research that shows movements with strong civic engagement—and sustained nonviolent action—are the most effective path to lasting change. You are laying that foundation with every march, every meeting, and every mobilization. We see your work. We are inspired by your courage. And we are grateful for your leadership.
