Hey John,

CONGRATULATIONS! You did it. We, the people, are seizing power unlike ever before. Thank you for speaking up, calling your Representative, and taking action to get the House to pass H.R. 1, the For The People Act.

It is a once-in-a-generation package of proven democratic reforms. Now, we’re one step closer to:

• Getting big money out of politics.
• Making voting simpler, safer, and fairer.
• Holding public officials accountable.

The House has spoken, now we need the Senate to act. If passed into law, the For the People Act would transform our political system into one that is more inclusive, responsive, and representative of the American people.

The American people are tired of a government that serves only the wealthy and corporate interests. You joined us in demanding a democracy that works for all of us, and we made Congress listen.

We need a democracy where voters are protected from discrimination and can make themselves heard at the ballot box. A democracy where electoral districts are drawn fairly, so that every voter’s ballot is of equal value. A democracy that isn't bought and paid for by the highest corporate bidder. And a democracy where ordinary Americans—more women, people of color, and working people—can run for office without relying on big corporate dollars.

Just imagine what we could accomplish this year and beyond if our government actually worked for us. Take action now to make sure the Senate passes the #ForThePeopleAct too!

Email your Senator to demand they pass the FOR THE PEOPLE ACT.
