The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act just passed in the House!
The legislation would restore and strengthen voter protections by expanding federal government oversight of attempted disenfranchisement — especially aimed at Black and Brown Americans. This is an important victory, particularly in the face of a recent wave of attempts at the state level and in the Supreme Court to restrict the right to vote.
The challenge now is that, despite the slim majority Democrats hold in the Senate, Republicans remain universally opposed to this legislation and the filibuster stands in the way of passing this critical bill — not to mention many other key, progressive priorities.
Together, we can safeguard every person’s right to vote.
Thank you for taking action today,
The A-Team
