This weekend we honor one of our greatest Americans, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who gave his life in the struggle to push our country to meet its founding promise of liberty and justice for all.

Dr. King knew deeply and personally how difficult progress can be. But he also understood that, if we stay the course, progress is inevitable. His observation that "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice” was a call to action in pursuit of our values.

Dr. King believed that each of us has a responsibility to participate in our democracy, to confront injustice, and to persevere against the forces of fear, hate, and ignorance that want to take us backwards. He lived his beliefs — and we are so much the better for it.

Now it's our turn.

At this moment we face a broad-based assault of state laws designed to make it harder to vote, interfere with who counts our votes, and who will certify the outcome of our votes. And it's up to us to protect our democratic process.

Even as we work to break the logjam in the Senate, change the undemocratic filibuster rule, and pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, we must also prepare for grassroots action and involvement on all fronts of our 2022 elections — getting voters to the polls, working at polling places, and responding to this assault on our elections with nothing less than a tsunami of people power.

We have to unite in action to achieve the America we believe in— where every man, woman, and child is equal under the law and in our society; where might does not mean right; and where empathy, truth, and integrity are the values we demand from each other and our officials — elected and unelected.

Working together we can — and must — bend that arc further and faster. On this Martin Luther King Day let us recommit to that mission.

Onwards,

Chris
