***********************

Supporter — throughout our country’s history, people of color have
had to fight every step of the way for our right to vote.

Against all obstacles, voters of color turned out in last year’s midterm
elections. Our Defend the Black Vote program helped drive turnout in
several key states, sending 4 million texts to 1.7 million potential
voters in 15 states. But in response, extremist authoritarians on the Far
Right are now doing whatever they can to pass laws and adopt procedures
that will make it harder to vote — particularly for Black voters.

In Georgia and Florida, and all around the country, state legislatures are
passing bills designed to suppress voting rights. The first month of 2023
saw a record 150 restrictive voting bills introduced by legislators in at
least 32 states.

That’s why, this Juneteenth, People For the American Way is renewing our
fight to Defend the Black Vote, fight voter suppression efforts, and work
to achieve record Black voter turnout in critical states across the
country.

People For’s Defend the Black Vote program is a nonpartisan effort to
ensure that historically disenfranchised voters are able to fully
participate in democracy and cast their votes. That means mobilizing
millions of Black men ages 18 to 60 against right-wing misinformation and
ongoing attacks on voting rights.

Our goal is clear: improve democracy by bringing about more representative
elections with greater participation of Black male voters.
Because we have the power
to make our system work for all of us — but only if we vote.

the Black Vote. >>

Thanks for all that you do,
