Democracy Summer 2020

John —

55 years ago, thanks to the powerful advocacy of the civil rights movement, the Voting Rights Act (VRA) was signed into law. This weekend, we're celebrating what voting means to each of us, learning more about young civil rights leaders like Congressman John Lewis, and making sure we're ready to exercise our right to vote. Rock the Vote's #DemocracySummer2020 continues August 6–8 with the #VRAToday weekend of action – sign up now to get updates!
