Dear John,

Join us tonight for a Mass Meeting streaming live from Georgetown, Texas to launch the historic 27-mile Georgetown-to-Austin March for Democracy.

Texas has become an battleground in the fight voting rights, and it is imperative that we make our voices heard. We demand Congress act now to stop attacks on democracy:

• End the filibuster
• Pass all provisions of the For the People Act
• Fully restore the 1965 Voting Rights Act
• Raise the federal minimum wage to $15/hr
• Permanent protections, dignity & respect for all 11 million undocumented immigrants

In the spirit of the Selma-to-Montgomery March of 1965, we are marching to send a message to Washington, D.C.: We demand the U.S. Senate and the White House act now to stop the attacks on our democracy. We want all of our rights, and we want them now! We must resist the extremist and monied powers that want to deny, abridge, and undermine all of our votes. The fight for voting rights and economic justice are one in the same. Join us for this historic march in Texas!

This march and rally is part of A Season of Nonviolent Moral Direct Action led by the Poor People's Campaign and dozens of partners. Go to action.poorpeoplescampaign.org for more information and updates.

Forward together, not one step back!
