The Democratic Party
-----------------------
Samuel --

Today, the Democratic National Committee, along with the Arizona
Democratic Party, the Kirkpatrick for Senate campaign, and the
Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, filed a federal lawsuit
against the state of Arizona.

On March 22nd, we watched as thousands of Arizonans were
denied their right to vote -- the most fundamental right that we hold
as Americans. And we decided to act now to ensure those same
injustices won't be repeated in November.

Americans have died to protect this precious right, and we won't
sit idly by now as the Constitution and the Voting Rights Act are
violated. As Democrats, one of our central objectives is to ensure
that Americans' values are reflected in our leaders -- and we do
that by protecting, preserving, and expanding the right to vote.
Every single eligible American deserves a voice in our electoral
process, but last month, Arizona silenced thousands of voices.

So with this lawsuit, here's what we're asking the courts to do:

- Review and approve the county's election plan to ensure it
complies with the Voting Rights Act and Constitution of the United
States.

- Require Arizona to count all out-of-precinct provisional ballots.

- Lift the ban on voters obtaining assistance when casting an early
vote, which was a longstanding practice in Arizona for years and is
a matter of course in other states.

This issue is incredibly important, and not just for Arizonans. Across
the country, Republicans are trying to make it harder to vote for women,
communities of color, students, the elderly, and working people -- the same
people Democrats spend every day fighting for.

Samuel, I'm asking you today to add your name and show the
Republican leadership in Arizona, and Republicans across the country
who aim to disenfranchise voters with cynical and downright offensive
laws, that Democrats are fighting back:

Together, we're going to expand voting access, restore the Voting Rights
Act, and ensure that the most basic and critical right we hold is protected.

Thank you.
