Friend -- I'm concerned about all of the ways extreme politicians may suppress the vote this fall. And I know I'm not the only one.
The president of a national civil rights group joined NPR this week to warn folks that "voter suppression is most certainly alive and well."
Kristen Clarke shared how extreme, partisan officials plan to suppress the vote this year -- and laid out what needs to be done to protect voters.
"We want polling sites to be open, free and fair environments where people can cast their ballots and have their voice heard."
-- Kristen Clarke, 09/13/2020, president and executive director of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law
All On The Line has been fighting for exactly this. We've been advocating for legislation like the HEROES Act that includes funding to make it easier to vote this fall. But as the intensity of our efforts grows, so do efforts to obstruct voting -- can you support our work to overcome the onslaught of attacks on our democracy?

We're working to protect the vote this year because making sure everyone can vote safely as the country faces a public health emergency is a key to making sure our democracy works for everyone. And this election is one of the first steps to ensure fair map advocates have a voice when the redistricting process begins.
Conservatives are conceiving brazen strategies to suppress the vote that were previously unthinkable -- from the sabotage of the USPS to deploying tens of thousands of "poll watchers" as an intimidation force. All because they'd rather see politicians pick their voters than be held accountable.
But if we work together, we can put an end to map manipulation and return our government to the people. Help us fuel this fight with a $15 donation.
