Today may
mark a turning point for our democracy. But not in the way I had hoped.

Later today, the Senate will vote on whether to begin debating the For The
People Act, landmark and popular voting rights legislation. This is the
big chance we have before the 2022 elections to combat the dangerous voter
suppression bills that Republicans have been passing across the country.
It’s our opportunity to protect our democracy. But with the filibuster
still in place, we need 60 votes to begin debate. That means 10 of Mitch
McConnell’s Republican obstructionists. Put another way: it has no chance
of passing the Senate with the filibuster in place.

The GOP will block the For The People Act because of the filibuster AND
because Republicans want to suppress the vote. It’s as simple as that. So
what do we do now? We END the filibuster. And Senate Democrats must do so
immediately!

right to vote, and preserve our democracy, please support my work today.
Chip in $3 or anything at all to fuel this urgent effort to
end the filibuster before it’s too late.

If we do not end the filibuster right away, our democracy will only face
greater threats. The GOP’s shameless efforts to hide what happened on
January 6 led them to use the filibuster to block the creation of a
commission to fully investigate the deadly attack on the Capitol.

Republicans will always prioritize voter suppression and protecting people
like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz who fuel attacks on our country. And with
the filibuster in place, our Democratic majority won’t be able to pass the
critical reforms needed at this moment — like getting big money out of
politics, LGBTQIA+ protections, gun violence prevention measures, and
more. It’s clear: we must nix the filibuster and deliver for the people.

for our democracy. Chip in $3 right now to help fuel my
fight to end the filibuster >>

In solidarity,
