As the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act approaches, we face a stark truth: its most powerful protections have been stripped away. The John Lewis VRAA is how we restore them, and protect the promise of democracy for all.

They want to rule by fear. We will respond with power, people, and purpose.

On July 17, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, communities are coming together.

The SAVE Act is a federal voter suppression bill. It would erect barriers to register to vote for countless Americans across many different communities. It is a solution in search of a problem and should be defeated. Vote NO on SAVE Act.

Citizens of color are three times more likely to lack citizenship documents or face difficulties accessing them. Two-thirds of Black Americans don't have passports. The SAVE Act is designed to silence these voters.

The SAVE Act will require individuals to bring documentary proof of citizenship to vote if they live in a state with same-day voter registration. Seriously, who carries their passports or birth certificates with them?

Call your Representative today and tell them to vote NO! #HandsOffHerVote
