[ [link removed] ]Welch for Vermont
Hello,
Right now, there are countless bills — supported by a majority of
Americans — that would save lives and protect democracy but that are
stalled in the Senate. From voting rights to codifying Roe v. Wade into
law — these are serious issues that demand immediate solutions at the
federal level.
But the solutions are currently being blocked in the Senate, solely
because of the filibuster. The filibuster is a relic of the Jim Crow era —
one that’s been weaponized by Mitch McConnell and national Republicans to
keep commonsense legislation from passing.
[ [link removed] ]It’s time to eliminate the filibuster. Add your name if you agree.
Time and time again, the bills that we pass in the House go to the Senate
to die because of the filibuster. As a result, we can’t deliver on our
promises and Americans suffer.
At a time when our democracy is imperiled, we need urgent responses. If
we’re going to act on the issues that matter to a majority of Americans —
including codifying Roe and passing the Women’s Health Protection Act —
the Senate must eliminate the filibuster.
[ [link removed] ]Please, if you agree that it’s time for the filibuster to go, add your
name to our petition. It’s critical we show my colleagues in the Senate
that we’re ready for action.
There’s a lot of work to do, but I know together, we can get it done.
Thanks for adding your name to this fight,
Peter
