Earlier this week, Texas Democrats walked out of a legislative session to prevent Republicans from passing a restrictive voter suppression bill.
This GOP bill is truly outrageous. It would make it a felony to send vote by mail applications to all voters, and ban drive-through and 24-hour voting locations.
Well Veteran Timothy Beauchamp, a Texas resident who served on submarines during the Cold War, has something important to say about Republicans’ attempt to suppress the vote in his state and across the country.
Since the last election, 17 states have passed bills like the one Democrats in Texas are fighting against. At their core, these bills are trying to restrict Americans’ right to vote. Anyone here who fought overseas to defend that sacred right should be outraged.
What we do now will determine whether we have a free and fair democracy in the years to come.
All our best,
