Friend —

John Lewis fought tirelessly to see his legacy realized, and now we are forced to watch as Trump, McConnell, and their allies dismantle his work.

The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act of 2020 has been collecting dust on McConnell’s desk for over 200 days. The bill would restore the full protections of the original Voting Rights Act of 1965, limiting the power of jurisdictions to enact discriminatory policies.

To have a safe and fair election, the Senate must act to provide election funding and security. Sign here to tell the Senate they must pass the Voting Rights Act of 2020 now.

Republicans are allowing our voting rights to be dismantled — the current administration is encouraging voter suppression, the Republican Party is suing to limit access to absentee ballots, and Georgia has wrongfully purged over 200,000 from voter rolls.

John Lewis risked his life marching for voting rights, and yet Trump and the GOP seem to have no respect for his legacy.

Add your name to this petition to demand the Senate honor the work of John Lewis by passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act of 2020→

Thanks for your support,

The Southern Strategy
