Supporter, Our nation is at a crossroads on many fronts, but few threats are quite as clear as those facing our democracy. It's no secret that Republican-led state legislatures are pushing discriminatory and suppressive voting laws directly threatening the core of our democracy. In the last year alone – and often citing the conspiracy theories and lies surrounding the outcome of the 2020 election – at least 14 states enacted 17 restrictive laws, making it one of the most devastating years for voting rights in the past decade. [1] These right-wing attacks jeopardize the accessibility and integrity of our elections, highlighting the urgent need for legislative action. This assault on our democracy is a blatant attempt to disenfranchise millions of Americans and consolidate power in the hands of a few. Your support is essential to counter the harm from Republican-led voter suppression initiatives. Together, let's send a resounding message to Congress that the right to vote must be protected against partisan interests. The strength of our democracy lies in the active participation of its citizens, and your support is instrumental in securing a future where every American can freely and fairly exercise their right to vote. Please take a moment to sign our petition and spread the word among your network. >> Thanks for all that you do, Zach, People For
