John,

Today marks a dark anniversary.

The carnage of that day didn't happen by accident. It was planned and coordinated from the White House and across the country. And the forces behind it are still working to gerrymander our state and deny you your freedom to vote.

We're going to stop them. And we need your help.

This morning, our legal team is wrapping closing arguments in our case against the North Carolina General Assembly's gerrymandered maps. In the U.S. Senate, there are two bills that would represent the biggest boosts to voting freedoms and election safeguards since the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Join us in marking this somber day with action, John. Tell your senators to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act now »

These bills would ensure every American's equal freedom to elect leaders of their choice. They would boost civic participation and end practices that hurt voters' confidence in our elections and our system of self-government. They would:

end partisan gerrymandering starting with the 2022 election
police dark money by requiring public donor disclosure
crack down on voter intimidation, deception, and discrimination
limit states from purging eligible voters from the rolls
require automatic voter registration, same-day registration, and online registration
mandate two weeks of early voting
require no-excuse mail voting, and ballots postmarked by Election Day would count if received within 7 days
make Election Day a national holiday
restore voting rights to felons upon release from prison

Without a healthy democracy, we can't have a healthy environment, and there's no better day to make these common-sense reforms a reality.

Take action now

Thanks for rededicating yourself to our democracy,
Carrie
