Breaking news, folks:
The U.S. Fifth Circuit Court just struck down Mississippi’s lifetime voting ban against individuals with convicted felonies — a ban that affected nearly 10% of Mississippi residents, or 1 in 10 Mississippi adults.
Felony disenfranchisement laws disproportionately target marginalized communities across our country — and today’s ruling is a major step forward for voting rights and our fair and free democracy as a whole.
Our partners have been working to unravel decades of Jim Crow-era voting practices and unjust voter suppression tactics all year long, and this major win wouldn’t have been possible without their determination and grassroots support from folks like you.
Join us in celebrating this life-changing ruling by pitching in to support Groundwork Project today. Your support today will help us build upon this win by continuing to sustain and expand our work across the Deep South, Appalachia, and the Plains:
