We just achieved a significant victory in the fight for voting rights, John.

On Tuesday, my Democratic House colleagues and I voted to strengthen the Voting Rights Act of 1965, honoring the legacy of Georgia congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis.

Now, we must call upon the Senate to pass this crucial voting rights legislation, so all Americans can have equal access to the ballot box.

If you're with me, sign our petition to call on the Senate to protect and expand voting protections in the Voting Rights Act now >> Over the past decade, the Supreme Court has eroded key voter protections within the Voting Rights Act -- clearing the way for states to make it harder for folks to vote, especially people of color.

We are already seeing that nightmare scenario play out, John. So far this year, 45 states have enacted more than 200 laws altering election rules making it more difficult for voters to cast their ballot.

And these needless restrictions -- including onerous new voter ID requirements, removing ballot boxes, and curtailing mail-in voting -- fall prominently on voters of color, continuing the injustice of racial discrimination at the ballot box.

We must act now and do everything we can to ensure that the voting process is fair, accessible, and equal for all Americans. Will you add your name as we demand the Senate act on voting rights?

Thank you for taking a stand for our democracy,
