The next round of elections is our best opportunity to hold accountable the senators and representatives who helped shield former President Trump from facing political consequences after encouraging violence at the Capitol.
Congress is considering two bills: the For the People Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. These democracy reforms would expand voting, end congressional gerrymandering, and reduce the influence of big money in politics -- putting more power in the hands of the people and making it easier to hold extreme and seditious politicians accountable.
They would benefit Republican and Democratic voters alike.
And they strengthen democracy at a time when
its domestic enemies are powerful and prevalent."

The All On The Line movement recently participated in a National Day of Action to support pro-democracy bills like the For the People Act. We believe advocacy from the grassroots is how we'll pass these bills into law. Can we count on you to make a donation -- of any amount -- right now to support our advocacy efforts?

Former President Trump's acquittal came down to more than 40 senators who saw what happened on January 6 and effectively shrugged their shoulders.
Their inaction has played a role in undermining our democracy along with the representatives in the House who voted against impeachment. They must face peaceful, political consequences for their actions. If we can pass democracy reforms, we can help level the political playing field across the country.
Will you pitch in $15 to our Rebuilding Democracy Fund to help us continue advocating for these popular democracy bills?
We must give voters a fair opportunity to hold these extreme politicians accountable. Congress must pass popular, pro-democracy reforms that will give voters more political power in the round of next elections.
Let's get to work,
