Closed polling places. Purging voter rolls. Unnecessary photo ID laws.
What happened at the polls on Tuesday in Georgia is the result of politicians who want to maintain power by making it harder for communities of color to vote. That's also why they want to pick their voters by systematically manipulating legislative maps.
As A.G. Holder said, that is now how a democracy should function. We're seeing similar conservative voter suppression tactics in Wisconsin, Ohio, and now Georgia. We must prepare to combat these tactics before November's election. Full stop.
Here are two ways to make an impact right now: 1) contact your elected officials and 2) help fund advocacy work. We've set two goals: making 5,000 contacts to Congress demanding election protection measures and raising $25,000 to ramp up advocacy efforts. We set a hard mid-month deadline for these goals because we know the election is only months away.

Elections should be decided by a majority of voters. That's impossible if conservatives continue to suppress the vote. Can we count on you to chip in to help sustain our efforts for the battle ahead?

This relentless effort to suppress the vote is part of a strategy to try and keep our democracy in the dark. But we have a candle and you do too, friend. Together, we're going to light the path forward and return our democracy to the people.
Thanks for being a part of this,
