John,
Over the last decade, we’ve seen voting rights are under attack nationwide as states pass voter suppression laws. We face a clear and present danger as 19 states have enacted 34 laws — with hundreds more proposed — that suppress votes and allow for the subversion of elections. The very bedrock of our democracy is at stake.
If you support protecting voting rights, join me by adding your name here to call for voting rights protections at the federal level.
These voter suppression laws are creating longer voting lines, fewer polling locations, and more ways for ballots to be thrown out. Ultimately, they are designed to make it harder for millions of people — especially people of color — to cast their vote.
These attacks and attempts to curtail our right to vote won’t stop. Unless we do something about it.
In 2022, six states had voting access proposals on the ballot. And when voting rights are on the ballot, Americans voted to protect it more often than not.
It’s time Congress did the same by passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act, which would protect voting access, put an end to partisan gerrymandering, and reinstate all of the critical protections of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
Will you stand with me in support of voting rights and the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act by adding your name here?

Thank you,
Congressman Sanford Bishop
