The U.S. Senate is voting TODAY whether to begin debate on the landmark For the People Act.

The For the People Act includes critical measures to protect voting rights, end partisan gerrymandering, and stop billionaires from buying elections along with other reforms to strengthen our democracy.

Pick up the phone right now and call both of your senators — it’s really easy!

Step 1:
Dial the U.S. Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. (Be patient, they’re getting lots of calls these days.)

Step 2:
When you get through to the switchboard, follow the prompts to be connected to the office of one of your senators. (Don’t worry, you won’t have to talk to your senator, you’ll just leave a message with a staffer or on voicemail.)

Step 3:
Leave this simple message: “I am calling to urge my senator to vote to begin debate on the For the People Act.”

Repeat steps 1 through 3 for your other senator.

That’s it!

Call even if you think one or both of your senators won’t support the For the People Act — so that senators know they are ignoring their constituents if they vote against our democracy.

Call (202) 224-3121 right now.

Thanks for taking action.

For democracy,

- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen

P.S. For half a century, Public Citizen has been advancing policies that put the needs of everyday Americans before the greed of billionaires and Big Business. That legacy of progress and that ongoing work could not matter more right now, as our nation transitions to a Joe Biden presidency that will be as progressive as we — you and Public Citizen, together — make it. We’re also busy undoing all the damage Trump did. And, like so many nonprofits and small businesses, we continue to experience financial strain related to the coronavirus pandemic. If you can, please make an emergency donation today to support the critical work we’re doing together or even join our popular Monthly Giving program. Thank you.
