John, as the founding executive director of a voting rights organization, we need to talk about the reality of how additional restrictive voter ID laws will make it harder for many Pennsylvanians to vote and will directly affect the communities we center. Pennsylvanians must reject restrictive voter ID laws.

To instill faith in our elections, Pennsylvania lawmakers should pass legislation for same-day voter registration like in North Carolina, and early voting like Georgians are lucky to have. Making the ballot more accessible, and the act of voting quicker and simpler should be the goal, not restrictive voter ID laws advocated for by those who fall for Trump’s Big Lies.

Pennsylvania already has voter ID laws on the books, and they’re effective. The truth is, any additional voter ID laws are solutions in search of a problem. The Pennsylvania electorate made their voices heard last November. They want an increase to the $7.25/hour minimum wage, fair education funding for our public schools, affordable housing and the protection and expansion of our voting rights. All of our elected officials should work on those issues first and foremost.

Additional voter identification laws are a part of an ongoing strategy to roll back decades of progress regarding expanded voting rights. One of the most effective methods we have to protect our freedom to vote right now is continuing to expand the electorate and advocate for policies that make it easier for constituents to vote – not more challenging.

That’s why I’m writing you today to inform you we missed our end-of-month goal to raise $965 in March to hit our $2,500 February goal and continue raising the funds we need to do this work. Will you donate $10 right now to help us close that gap before the clock hits midnight?

The New Pennsylvania Project was founded in May 2021 to expand Pennsylvania’s electorate, so it reflects the Commonwealth’s demographically changing population. In the next four years, NPP will engage and empower young residents and those living in underrepresented immigrant communities and communities of color. We register communities to vote, provide civic education about the issues that matter in their neighborhoods, and mobilize Pennsylvanians to vote in every election.
