Last night, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer vowed, "voting rights
will be the first matter of legislative business when the Senate returns
to session in September" after Republicans again blocked debate on voting
rights.

That makes September the make-or-break moment for reforming the filibuster
and protecting our democracy.

Who better to make the case than veterans such as those PCCC and Common
Defense are elevating who say, "We put our lives on the line to defend
American democracy -- not the filibuster.”

Common Defense is a grassroots organization with a large veterans
membership base -- including thousands of veterans with disabilities.
Veterans are a group that many senators listen to -- including Senators
Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema.

As part of a big campaign to apply pressure in the end game of this
democracy fight, Common Defense and the PCCC recruited thousands of
stories from veterans.

We're doing TV ads, a social media blitz, and press events featuring
disabled vets. They are making clear that state laws restricting mail-in
voting and early voting directly inhibit voting access for disabled
veterans who cannot wait hours in a line on Election Day.

The For the People Act would ensure our democracy is accessible for all,
but the filibuster has thus far prevented any significant steps from being
taken.

These vets fought for democracy, not the filibuster. We are elevating
veteran voices in a dozen key states with senators pivotal in this fight
-- such as West Virginia, Arizona, Montana, New Hampshire, and Maine.

[ [link removed] ]Please help us launch this campaign in a way every senator, including
Joe Manchin sees. Chip in here to air the powerful new TV ad in Washington
DC this week and help the PCCC and Common Defense elevate MORE voices in
key states like Arizona, West Virginia, Montana, New Hampshire, and Maine.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
