Hello,
When right-wing rioters broke into the Capitol earlier this year, baselessly claiming the presidential election was rigged, we saw how fragile our democracy truly is.
Make no mistake — this reckoning has been a long time coming. For decades, right-wing groups have sought to maintain power by spreading debunked claims of voter fraud. They’ve pushed voter suppression through strict ID laws, attacks on voting-by-mail, purging voter rolls, and more that make it harder for Americans to access the ballot box.
It’s absurd. We should be making it easier — not harder — for Americans to vote and make their voices heard.
That’s why I’m a proud original co-sponsor of the For the People Act. This bill will strengthen our democracy by expanding voting rights, fighting voter suppression, stopping dark money, and more.
Now more than ever it is clear that we must fight to uphold our sacred democracy and passing this bill is a critical first step. Will you join me and sign on as a citizen co-sponsor of the For the People Act today?
I first ran for office because I saw no one in government sticking up for dirt farmers like me. So, I made a vow when I became a Senator to fight for every single hardworking American — not just the ones at the top.
This bill does exactly that.
Thank you,
Jon
