In case you missed our email earlier this week, here are two things you need to know:
- At least 361 voter suppression laws have been introduced across 47 states.
- The Collective Future's Vote To Live campaign is fighting back.
Just this week, Florida's GOP-controlled House passed legislation that would add strict new rules for drop boxes and new identification requirements for absentee ballots. Team, this is voter suppression.
We can't fight back against these blatantly racist attacks and defend our right to vote without grassroots support. So I'm turning to you.
Will you chip in right now, before our end-of-month deadline tonight at midnight, to help us protect Black voters and defend our sacred right to vote?
Read on to learn more about the resurgence of voter suppression in America, and what our team is doing to fight back.

Subject: 361 voter suppression laws in 2021
Voter suppression is having a resurgence in America -- and it's not by accident. Right now, extremist lawmakers have introduced at least 361 voter suppression laws across 47 states.
Friend, this is the 'New Jim Crow.' Corrupt politicians are blatantly and shamelessly wielding any power they have to stop Black voters from getting to the polls. So we're sounding the alarm.
We launched Vote To Live to make sure nothing, and NO ONE, can stand between Black voters and our sacred right to vote. We set an emergency fundraising goal of raising $15,000 by Friday at midnight to help fight back against these blatant attacks on our right to vote. Will you chip in before the deadline?

Extremist lawmakers know exactly what they're doing when they introduce blatant voter suppression laws. It's a shameless tactic as old as our country that stops our communities from building power.
We can fight back, but we need your support. Rush an emergency contribution before the deadline to help us support the Black communities facing down these voter suppression laws.
We're counting on your investment,
The Collective Future
