Fight for $15
**************************
John,
Exactly one year ago, I watched a mob fueled by lies about election fraud launch a deadly attack on the Capitol in Washington DC. I was scared but not surprised. These right wing extremists were fired up by the same Republicans who have been trying to make it harder for workers like me to vote and organize into a union for years.
When we turn out in record numbers and vote for leaders who fight for us -- like Black and Brown voters did in 2020 -- they get scared because they know we're more powerful when we stand together. So they're trying to take that away.
They're out to protect the corporations that exploit us with low wages, unsafe working conditions, and attacks on our rights every day. They continue to lie and inflame tensions that drive Americans apart, promote dangerous ideologies that show they have no business governing for us.
We must protect our right to vote -- and that means ending the filibuster to pass voting rights. Take 1 minute and call your Senator >> 1-833-312-1833.
We all deserve safe workplaces, union rights, the freedom to vote, and to have a voice in the decisions that impact our lives. But things like voter ID laws, unfairly rigging electoral maps, and restrictions on mail-in voting all attack our fundamental freedom. Republican politicians and the corporations that fund their electoral campaigns know exactly what they're doing when they introduce these laws.
WE have the numbers. We need to prevent lawmakers from rigging the elections against us to hoard power.
We can't win any of our fights -- for safe workplaces, for union rights, for fair wages -- without a seat at the table. Call Congress and tell them: you MUST do whatever it takes to pass the Freedom To Vote Act (S. 2747), the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (H.R. 4/ VRAA), and DC Statehood >> 1-833-312-1833.
