When I started at Stand Up America last summer, I knew I had my work cut out for me. Getting Trump and his sidekicks out of office was step one, which we accomplished together. And now we get to shift our focus to step two: building back our democracy so it works for all Americans. 

To get started, we’ve got a serious list of priorities for the first 100 days of Biden’s presidency: [link removed] Chief among them is the For the People Act. This bold democracy reform package is exactly what we need to start repairing and rebuilding our broken system -- but we need your help getting Congress on board.

Here’s what I need you to do. Send a pre-written letter to the editor of your local paper to spread the word about the For the People Act and make sure Congress knows we’re serious about democracy reform.

The For the People Act puts power back where it belongs: with the voters. It tackles the racist barriers to voting and representation -- like gerrymandering, voter ID laws, unnecessary hurdles to registration, and felony disenfranchisement -- that disproportionately marginalize Black and Brown people. It also seeks to fix our broken campaign finance system, which reinforces this inequality by favoring the overwhelmingly white, wealthy, and male donor class -- allowing their money to decide who should take office and what their political priorities should be once elected. 

If we want to see action on the critical issues facing our country, from gun control to universal health care, then we must unrig our political system first. The For the People Act is the way to get that done.

It’s going to be a real fight to get this bill passed, and it’s up to all of us to stand up and demand the democracy that we deserve. Sending a letter to the editor of your local paper ensures your community and legislators know exactly where you stand.
