[ [link removed] ]Tell Pres. Biden to lead on voting rights! Call Today >>

Friend,

After we protested across the street from the White House last week, Press
Secretary Jen Psaki was asked questions about what President Biden was
doing to push the Senate on federal voting rights legislation. She didn’t
give us a real answer.

We need you to join us in telling President Biden directly that his
commitment to voting rights doesn’t mean anything if the protections in
the For the People Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act
aren’t passed into law. It’s vital that he acts without delay so that the
Senate can pass these bills as soon as they return from recess.

[ [link removed] ]Call the White House today before 3 PM ET to demand that President
Biden do more than just talk about how much he values voting rights – we
need him to act! >>

With another disastrous voting rights decision by the Supreme Court this
summer, it’s clear we need the protections in both the For the People Act
and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act in order to ensure that
all eligible voters – especially the voters of color who are being
targeted by right-wing lawmakers – have access to the ballot box. The
White House has reopened its comment line from 11 AM - 3 PM ET from
Tuesdays through Thursdays every week, giving us a new opportunity to
connect directly with the one person left who might be able to sway the
Senate: the President.

President Biden has spoken forcefully on the need for greater federal
protections for voting rights – and yet he neglects to discuss the only
remaining barrier to their passage: the filibuster. We won’t let our
country be dragged back into the era of Jim Crow voter suppression laws by
white supremacists, President Biden needs to use his bully pulpit to
insist the Senate eliminate the filibuster as an obstacle to voting rights
legislation.

[ [link removed] ]Call President Biden right now to demand that he lead on voting rights
– and not let the Senate filibuster kill voting rights! >>

Thank you for defending the freedom to vote,

Ben Jealous, President
