John,
It’s simple. The Senate’s failure to pass the For the People Act damages democracy. If you believe we deserve a voice in the voting booth and the workplace, call your senators and tell them to protect voting rights and to pass the PRO Act.
The Senate could defend our democracy at the ballot box by passing the For the People Act (S. 1) and expand our voice on the job by passing the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act (S. 420).
But instead, both are stalled in the Senate.
When an American citizen is denied the right to vote, whether by a court, a state legislature or business as usual in Washington, we become a lesser nation.
When more than 60 million people would vote for a voice on the job today, but only one in 10 workers are union members, something is terribly wrong.
The American people voted for change. It is time for Congress to protect and honor that vote with action. Make the call.
In Solidarity,
