Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. knew more than anyone about the dangers of anti-democratic forces working against the dream of a fully representative, multiracial democracy. The attack at the U.S. Capitol two years ago and the ongoing attacks against our democracy make abundantly clear that those forces are still alive today, and we must confront them.
For too long those promises have not been realized and shared by all Americans. Please take time today to honor his legacy with action at the events in your community and by joining us in our campaign to build a more inclusive, responsive democracy. As Ranked Choice Voting for Minnesota Chief Author Representative Cedrick Frazier reminds us, RCV provides the incentives for elected leaders to connect with and be responsive to all constituents, especially traditionally marginalized communities. That’s how RCV builds a more inclusive and responsive democracy for all.
