Checks and balances are a necessary part of our democracy

 

Dear Friend,

Today, Leagues from 50 states and DC stood together to file an amicus brief in a Supreme Court case that could define our democracy for years to come.

The case, Moore v. Harper, focuses on the “independent state legislature theory" (ISLT), which, if adopted, would give state legislatures nearly unrestricted authority to set the rules for federal elections.

Checks and balances are an essential part of our democracy, keeping power in the hands of the people rather than politicians.

We implore the court to reject the ISLT and rule in favor of voters.

Learn more from our press release, and if you choose, support our work defending democracy.

In League,
