"The next few days, when these bills come to a vote, will mark a turning point in this nation's history. The issue is: Will we choose democracy over autocracy, light over shadows, justice over injustice? I know where I stand. I will not yield. I will not flinch. I will defend the right to vote and our democracy against all enemies foreign, and yes, domestic. And the question is: Where will the institution of the United States Senate stand?"
– President Joe Biden
John,
President Joe Biden just endorsed reforming the filibuster in the U.S. Senate to pass critical and significant voting rights protections.
For years, Senate Republicans have used the filibuster to obstruct any and all progress on voting rights and many more important issues.
Now, as Republicans in state legislatures across the country pass more and more laws to make it harder to vote and undermine our elections, we can't let Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans prevent urgent voting reforms.
We will not rest until all Americans have full opportunity to exercise their right to vote, and until every person's vote is counted and treated the same — no matter who they are, where they live, or what they look like. It's time to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
Add your name to support President Biden's call to reform the filibuster and pass these necessary voting rights bills. [[link removed]]
