iVote Fund

Sensible gun laws, a safer environment, campaign finance reform, affordable access to health care, and many other progressive priorities are supported by an overwhelming majority of the American people. But they aren’t the law of the land. That isn’t an accident. Republicans know they don’t enjoy popular support. So, keeping certain people from voting is at the heart of their election strategy. We have to fight voter suppression, but we can’t just play defense anymore. iVote is going on offense to fight to expand access to voting to ensure more people vote... because if everyone voted our democracy would finally reflect the will of all its people.

We’ve been through a lot. But we’re not done yet.

iVote     Hello, I am FUMING— I need Democrats to WAKE UP and take a look at what’s happening in Montana!! Mitch McConnell has handpicked a candidate to run against Jon Tester. Tim Sheehy is nothing but a wannabe cowboy who lies almost as much as he breathes. He’s a snake a…
