Now is the time for Congress to step up and pass common-sense gun violence prevention reforms, such as universal background checks, closing the gun show loophole, and banning assault weapons.

Tell your Senators to pass the Bipartisan Background Checks Act and take a stand against the epidemic of gun violence.

Join the countless Americans who have been the driving force behind making voting rights reform a continued goal of this Congress.

Implore your senators to support federal voting rights reforms.

Proposed SC House maps appear to be an extreme partisan gerrymander. If these maps pass, they will lead to the disenfranchisement of thousands of voters. Major communities of interest are divided, hundreds of precincts are split, and there are even fewer competitive districts. Express your alarm by Monday, November 15 @ noon. 

The fight for voting rights has been a long and enduring battle. And the newly released Freedom to Vote Act is a transformative voting rights bill that will protect and expand the right to vote, decrease the influence of money in politics and curb partisan gerrymandering. This legislation will put power back into the hands of American voters by prioritizing voting access and participation, while also modernizing future elections to ensure a system that everyone can trust. Contact your Representative TODAY and tell them to pass the Freedom to Vote Act.
