John, 

Breaking: U.S. Senators are preparing to release a historic compromise democracy reform bill that would pass the most important components of the For the People Act.¹ 

Senator Joe Manchin is part of the effort — finally helping craft a bill that would fix our broken political system and force lawmakers to work for you and your family. 

We need to make sure the most important reforms from the For the People Act stay in the new bill. Send a message to your Senators NOW demanding the new bill outlaw gerrymandering and protect voting rights. Your lawmaker won’t try to weaken this new compromise if they know their constituents support these integral provisions in this bill. 

Every call we’ve made, message we’ve sent, and banner we’ve dropped has led us to this moment. For months, Senator Manchin held out on support for the For the People Act. Now, because of overwhelming pressure from the anti-corruption movement, he's working with other Senators towards something he'd endorse. 

This bill would be a historic achievement — helping unrig our elections and fix our broken democracy. But only if it stays strong. 

Our sources tell us this bill is days from being rolled out, so time is of the essence. Send a message to your Senators right now demanding they end partisan gerrymandering and protect voting rights in this compromise bill. 

We’ll have more updates soon. But for now, thank you.
