Dear Friend -
Yesterday, as state legislative bodies around the country were advancing an unprecedented number of voter suppression bills, Fair Fight Action founder Stacey Abrams testified in Congress on the importance of federal action to protect our democracy and ensure access to the ballot box regardless of zip code. Arguing for H.R. 1, she said, "Democracy works best when we install guardrails to ensure every American has an equal opportunity to make their voice heard and be fairly represented."

As we fight voter suppression in the states, we must urge immediate federal action on the right to vote in order to stop voter suppression laws state Republican leaders are advancing due to their false claims of voter fraud. Please urge your U.S. Representative to support H.R. 1- For the People Act- by calling the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and asking to be connected to your Member of Congress. You can find your Representative here.
Thank you for making your voice heard to strengthen our democracy.
- Lauren Groh-Wargo and the whole team at Fair Fight Action
