Just Announced: Senator Schumer intends to bring the Freedom to Vote Act to the Senate floor on Monday – but obstructionists are threatening to stop the Senate from even debating the bill.

These same obstructionists have filibustered every single democracy reform bill this year, so we need to build undeniable pressure to demand the Senate debate this bill.

RepresentUs members across America are banding together to send a massive open letter to the Senate demanding they stop the gridlock and debate the Freedom to Vote Act. Will you read it below and add your name? Your signature is crucial to building enough public pressure:

To my senators: The Freedom to Vote Act is critical to protecting our democracy. Next week, the landmark legislation which would make Election Day a holiday, end gerrymandering, stop dark money in elections, and much more, will be brought to the Senate floor. Protecting our democracy is not a partisan issue. Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, or Independent, we must come together on this key point: Voters should control our democracy, not establishment political parties or big money special interests. But we’re barreling towards a reality in which only the elite have a say, elections are bought by dark money, and Congress is decided by gerrymandered districts instead of competitive elections. Whether you support the bill or not, the American people deserve a debate and a vote. Please protect our democracy by bringing the Freedom to Vote Act to the Senate floor. Signed,

Our Senate insiders tell us that Senator Manchin has been working to build bipartisan support for allowing debate next week, but he hasn’t made enough in-roads. He needs our help.

John, the more signatures we add to our open letter, the stronger our collective demand will be. You can even add your own commentary with your signatures to be delivered to your senators.

We need a loud collective demand to show the Senate we expect action, make your voice heard with us now:

Thank you,

Jen Johnson Movement Director RepresentUs
