Action needed: Protect our right to vote!


A new report from the Brennan Center for Justice shows that MILLIONS of voters have been purged from the voters rolls since the Supreme Court’s 2013 decision in Shelby County vs. Holder that gutted the Voting Rights Act.

And right now, special interest groups and the super-rich, like the Koch network, are pouring cash into our elections. They’re finding candidates to elect who will push their shady agendas – including disenfranchising voters with policies like requiring voter IDs.

Corporations, billionaires and dark money groups shouldn’t drown out voters’ voices. But when it comes to environmental policies, corporate polluters are calling all the shots, threatening our health, safety and climate. And that’s not even scratching the surface of dark money’s influence: Reproductive rights, gender equity, worker’s rights, health care and more are all under attack.

Right now, we need 100,000 activists to stand up and demand Congress take action to protect every vote. Congress must safeguard our elections: End gerrymandering, fix our campaign finance system and prevent the corrupting influence of corporations. Our future is at stake – and your voice is more important than ever before.

Demand action! Add your name to tell Congress: Protect our right to vote!
