As you read this, millions of people are barred from voting because they were previously convicted of felonies.

An estimated 5.8 million formerly incarcerated people have entered back into a society that denies them a say in issues directly affecting their communities, their families, and their lives. And in nine states — Arizona, Wyoming, Iowa, Connecticut, Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida — formerly incarcerated people may be permanently stripped of their freedom to vote.

We’re working towards a democracy that includes all of us, and that doesn’t prevent folks from making their voices heard simply because they were incarcerated. Sign your name if you agree that formerly incarcerated people should be able to vote everywhere. [[link removed]]

In a country with a long and painful history of mass incarceration that disproportionately targets Black Americans, these laws are a clear relic of the Jim Crow Era. They’re designed to further suppress Black voting rights and weaken Black voting power. Despite making up 12 percent of the overall population of the U.S., Black Americans account for 40 percent of the formerly incarcerated people who can’t vote.

At Fair Fight Action, we’re committed to challenging racist voter suppression laws like these and fighting for an inclusive democracy. If you’re with us, sign your name to show that you support restoring voting rights for formerly incarcerated people. Let’s work together to make it happen. [[link removed]]
