This is their attempt to stop Black and Brown folks from having their voices heard on Election Day.

Fellow activist,
Ahead of a critical election year, Republicans are stepping up their attacks on voting rights.
Shortly after PA Democratic Speaker Joanna McClinton announced her intention to introduce same-day voter registration and early in-person voting on machines, Republicans lashed out. Senator Cris Dush (R) introduced legislation to eliminate satellite offices and drop boxes, and PA House GOP Leader Bryan Cutler announced his intention to push for a constitutional amendment to advance additional voter ID barriers.
In order to vote in Pennsylvania, voters already need to show a valid ID when voting for the first time. But in a clear attempt to suppress votes, Republicans want to take it a step further.
As our CEO Kadida Kenner stated to LancasterOnline (LNP), “This is their attempt to stop Black and Brown folks, young voters and immigrant communities from having more convenient access to ballots and having their voices heard on Election Day.”
We’ve seen these attacks before. In 2020, Trump ran a smear campaign against PA’s election systems in an attempt to overturn the results. Now, with the 2024 presidential election coming up fast and PA being a key battleground state, we have to be prepared for anything.
