John, do you know why the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act is so important?

First, the Voting Rights Act was a piece of landmark legislation designed to protect voting rights and prevent discrimination at the polls.

But then, lawsuits and Supreme Court rulings over the years gutted this bill. That’s how the GOP has managed to pass more than 500 voter suppression bills this year!

And now, Democrats are joining forces to restore the VRA with the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, to protect voting rights and defend voters from discrimination and disenfranchisement.

The GOP will never willingly give up power – not even to do the right thing. That’s why we need your help to demand Congress pass this bill and stop the GOP’s extremist power grabs. Sign the petition: Call on Congress to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act today! >>>

Begin forward:

John,

For decades now, the Supreme Court has been steadily gutting elements of the Voting Rights Act, leaving it a shell of its former self.

A new bill aims to restore key provisions and protect voters from discrimination and disenfranchisement. It’s called the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And it’s desperately needed in 2021.

Those strong protections are exactly why the GOP won’t support this bill. They depend on discrimination and voter suppression to win elections nation-wide. We can’t let them keep getting away with it!

The Senate is considering the John Lewis Voting Rights Act now, and we need to put the pressure on to ensure it’s passage. Let’s hold the GOP accountable, John. Sign the petition and DEMAND that Congress restore the Voting Rights Act! >>>
