Over the past year, the integrity of our democracy has been repeatedly challenged — making it even more imperative that we protect the right to vote.

Yesterday, President Biden and Vice President Harris called on the Senate to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. I join them in urging the Senate to pass these key pieces of legislation.

Nothing — not even the filibuster — must get in the way of defending this crucial right.

If you agree, I hope you will add your name to my petition telling the Senate that they must pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act swiftly.
