Dear John,

For decades, voter suppression has been used as a tool to consolidate power, disproportionately targeting people of color and low-income communities. Today, extremist politicians are continuing this shameful legacy, pushing restrictive bills that would make it more difficult for tens of thousands of others to use their voices.

That’s exactly why we must be more determined to vote than ever before. Right now you can request your mail-in ballot for the April 1 election at MyVote Wisconsin. Voting from home will ensure that it’s as easy as possible for you to use your voice. 

On that day, the future of Wisconsin’s Supreme Court will be determined. That, in turn, could influence a huge range of policies that people like you and I care deeply about. 

It’s critical that we are ready for this. That’s why I’m encouraging you and others to request your mail-in ballot today.

In defiance,

Tyler Kelly

P.S. Power-hungry state legislators have proposed yet another constitutional amendment that will be on your April 1 ballot. This amendment seeks to enshrine Wisconsin’s voter ID law in the state constitution. Wisconsin's strict voting laws have already created more hurdles to voting than there are in many other states. The proposed amendment does nothing to improve our elections and is a distraction from the issues voters care about. Join us and VOTE NO!
