John,
Ron DeSantis has unleashed his election police to strike fear into Florida voters. People who dared to support the abortion rights ballot measure, Amendment 4, are now finding state officers at their doors, questioning them about their signatures.
This is voter suppression, plain and simple. DeSantis and his allies want to silence those fighting for reproductive rights, and they're using intimidation tactics to get their way.
Amendment 4 represents a pivotal moment for reproductive freedom in Florida, but DeSantis’s intimidation campaign threatens to scare voters into silence. His election police are weaponizing fear, creating a chilling effect that discourages people from engaging in their constitutional right to petition and vote.
The tactics being used in Florida echo voter suppression schemes of the past, and we won’t allow history to repeat itself. It’s time for the Department of Justice to intervene and stop this assault on democracy. We cannot stand by while the basic democratic process is trampled in broad daylight.
Stand with us and demand that the Department of Justice investigates DeSantis’s election police now. Floridians deserve a free and fair election without intimidation or fear tactics.
When police knock on your door asking questions about your personal political beliefs, it creates an environment of fear and distrust. Many voters, especially communities of color, may think twice before signing another petition or voting on Election Day.
This is exactly what DeSantis and his allies want. They want to scare people into submission, using the power of the state to intimidate those who don’t align with their extremist agenda.
If we allow this intimidation to continue unchecked in Florida, it will spread. Other states will follow suit, and the ripple effects could destroy ballot measures and voter initiatives across the country.
What’s happening in Florida is just the beginning, this fight is about more than one state. It’s about preserving the very essence of our democracy.
Let’s fight back now. Demand justice. Tell the DOJ to investigate and protect Floridians from this outrageous abuse of power.
Thank you for standing up for democracy and reproductive freedom.
