Senate Democrats are ready to hold a vote on amending the filibuster in
order to pass historic voting rights legislation. If Democrats in the
Senate all vote together, we will protect voting rights, free and fair
elections, and our democracy.
But that’s only the big first step.
We don’t just need to amend the filibuster, we need to END the filibuster.
That’s the only way Senate Democrats can pass critical reforms without
McConnell and the GOP blocking our progress each step of the way.
Here are just a few of the progressive bills that Pramila helped pass
through the House that are stuck in the Senate without nixing the
filibuster:
* The Equality Act would provide non-discrimination protections for
LGBTQ people across the country. This bill is so critical for
protecting LGBTQ folks in America, but the filibuster is blocking its
passage.
* The Dream Act would create a roadmap to citizenship for Dreamers and
other immigrants who have been in America for years. Immigrants should
be able to live in this country without fear of persecution,
detention, or deportation.
* The PRO Act to protect workers and their right to organize. Workers
have power when they organize their workplaces, and we must make it
easier for people to join unions.
* The Women’s Health Protection Act to protect abortion rights across
America.
There are too many to list: gun safety, environmental protections, raising
the minimum wage, policing reform — it’s all on the line when we talk
about the filibuster.

and so much more. Can you chip in towards our continued fight for voting
rights, the Equality Act, Dream Act, PRO Act, and so much more? We need to
get this done before it’s too late.

We can only make this change together, and we need to be all-in on this
fight.
In solidarity,
