John,

In a democracy, everyone should have an equal say in choosing our leaders and shaping our shared destiny. Yet across the United States, the right to vote is facing an unprecedented assault by right-wing extremists.

In state after state, Republican politicians are pushing strict Voter ID laws designed to make it harder for young people, people of color, low-income individuals, and other historically marginalized communities to cast a ballot.

The real agenda behind these laws is voter suppression, plain and simple.

With the integrity of our democracy at stake, we cannot allow attacks on voting rights to stand. That's why the Right to Vote Act would establish a clear, nationwide right to vote in Federal elections and block state-level laws aimed at voter suppression.

To make this landmark legislation a reality, need everyone who believes in liberty and justice to step up. Become a grassroots co-signer of the Right to Vote Act now.

When nearly a third of Black Americans ages 18-29 do not have a driver's license^[1], for many, obtaining the necessary documents like birth certificates and Social Security cards to get one is a costly and burdensome process, forcing them to take time off work and pay fees they can't afford.

With an estimated 21 million citizens lacking the type of government-issued photo ID that many states are now demanding as a requirement to vote^[1], these ID laws are a shameful attempt by Republicans to rig the system in their favor.

It’s clear that we need bold action to stop the spread of discriminatory ID requirements and other tactics designed to disenfranchise legitimate voters.

The Right to Vote Act will secure the most basic promise of democracy, not just for us but for future generations of Americans.

We cannot sit idly by while the sacred right that so many fought and died for is methodically dismantled. Add your name as a co-signer of the Right to Vote Act and send an unmistakable message to Congress: The right to vote must be protected at all costs.

Together, we can safeguard the right to vote and build a more perfect union with liberty and justice for all.
