Voting rights are the foundation because they secure all other rights.

Federal lawmakers must act now to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which would protect the freedom to vote.

Equality — and our democracy — cannot wait. #RestoreTheVRA

@leagueofwomenvoters In today's political climate, it's more important than ever to ensure every person has the opportunity to make their voice heard.

That's what we do at the League: empower all voters, across gender, race, political party, geographic location, language, and more.

Posted @withregram • @leagueofwomenvoters ☝️Don't let the name fool you -- this legislation is unnecessary and ANTI-DEMOCRATIC.

Last week, Dora Rose, LWVC Deputy Director, opposed Assembly Bill 25 (DeMaio), which aimed to impose strict voter ID and documentary proof of citizenship laws.
The bill's author dismissed her testimony as “hysterical.”
The bill was defeated.
