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

Friend,

This week, President Biden is convening an international summit on
democracy. But it is difficult to imagine how we as a country can be a
beacon for democracy around the world when our own democracy faces such
imminent and drastic threats. If the President wants to provide that
beacon of hope to the world, he must do more to press for the essential
legislation here at home that would protect our democracy.

Please join us in telling President Biden that his commitment to voting
rights is an empty one if the protections in the Freedom to Vote Act and
the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act aren’t passed into law. It’s
vital that he uses the power of his office without delay to urge the
Senate to pass both these bills before the end of the year.

to demand that President Biden do more than talk about how much he values
voting rights – we need him to act. >>

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 key person who can sway the Senate to fix or
nix the filibuster and defend voting rights from attacks by far-right
lawmakers: the President. We give you the phone number to call and a
sample call script, so you’ll have everything you need to make this
critical call today.

President Biden has spoken forcefully on the need for greater federal
protections for voting rights –but he needs to press for reforming the
Senate and removing 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. The Senate should not continue “business as
usual” when our democracy is on the line. We must reform the Senate to
pass these essential bills.

[ [link removed] ]Tell President Biden today that he MUST lead on voting rights – and not
let the Senate filibuster kill our democracy! >>

Thank you for defending the freedom to vote,

– Ben Jealous, President
