Breaking News reported by the New York Times:
“Texas G.O.P. Passes Election Bill, Raising Voting Barriers Even Higher”
“The bill, which will tighten what were already some of the nation’s strictest voting rules, represents a major victory for Republicans in their nationwide push to overhaul elections.”
Here’s the bad news, John: Texas Republicans just sent their Jim Crow-style voter suppression bill to Greg Abbott’s desk. The GOP’s scheme to undermine our democracy is moving forward.
Now, here’s the good news: Texas Democrats have laid out what needs to happen to defend the right to vote — the Senate needs to take up voter protection legislation like the For the People Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
That’s why we’ve been tasked with organizing a SURGE of grassroots pressure to kick off September. Will you chip in $10 to send a message to the Senate that they need to protect the right to vote?

John — this September is our last shot before our Federal Elections Commission deadline to put pressure on Congress. After this deadline, all of our fundraising numbers are going to be public.
Frankly, we’re starting September off way behind the GOP. Republicans just have more dark money to spend lobbying against our pro-democracy agenda, we can’t keep up.
We’re relying on grassroots activists like you, John, to help us put pressure on the Senate. Will you join our fight by immediately rushing $10?
Thanks,
The Majority Rules
