[ [link removed] ]Tell the senate to protect our voting rights! Call now >>

Friend,

We have breaking intel that the Freedom to Vote Act could move forward in
the Senate before the end of the year. We need you to act right away to
urge them to do just that!

It’s clear that the filibuster cannot continue to be a barrier to Senate
passage of the Freedom to Vote Act and other vital voting rights bills. We
need to reform Senate rules so that the Freedom to Vote Act can pass as
soon as possible in order for these protections to be enacted in time for
the 2022 midterm elections. The Senate’s winter recess can wait – our
democracy can’t.

[ [link removed] ]Click to call the Senate to demand protection for our voting rights –
even if it means delaying their recess to do it! >>

After you click, we’ll give you the phone numbers to your senators'
offices and a sample script, so you’ll have everything you need to make
this critical call right now. Calls from their own constituents are
critically important in swaying how Senators vote on legislation, and
that’s why we’re relying on you to help press the case for the Freedom to
Vote Act. It will take about 5 minutes of your time to call, and it could
make a huge difference in whether or not federal voting rights protections
are passed. And when you've finished making calls, please forward this
email to your friends and family and urge them to do the same!

In 2021 alone, more than 425 bills to restrict voter access have been
introduced in 49 states. So far, at least 19 of those states have enacted
33 laws that make it harder for people to vote.^[1] We won’t let our
country be dragged back into the era of Jim Crow voter suppression laws.

[ [link removed] ]Tell the Senate that recess can wait for them to pass the Freedom to
Vote Act – but our democracy can’t! >>

The Senate should not continue “business as usual” when our democracy is
on the line, and that’s why we’re urging them to pass it immediately – or
delay their winter recess until it’s passed.

In unity,

– Sarah, Digital Campaigns Associate
