According to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), multiple states have passed voter suppression laws across the country since 2008.1 These laws range from enacting stricter voter ID requirements to restricting access to the opportunity to vote, and unsurprisingly, they disproportionately impact Black and brown voters, Native and Indigenous voters, voters with disabilities, and low-income voters.2 We need swift action from our elected officials to protect and expand our voting rights. [And passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act can be one of the steps that the U.S. Congress takes to ensure voting rights are advanced,]( especially in this year of presidential elections. That’s why we’re joining a coalition of organizations to urge Congress to support this critical piece of legislation. But we can’t do it without your help. [So will you write to your elected representatives today and demand that they pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act?]( We’ve even made it easy for you to take action.

[ACT NOW]( Since the Supreme Court gutted the heart of the Voting Rights Act in 2013, over 100 state laws that restrict voting have been enacted -- with dozens more still being considered by state legislatures across the country. Right now, we have an opportunity to strengthen voting rights for millions of people across the country. The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act is an important bill that can help address voter suppression attempts in the United States and strengthen voter protection laws instead.3 Your support can help us have the biggest impact possible. [Take a moment today to demand Congress pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and together, we can protect the right to vote for millions of people.]( [Taylor Leake] Onward, Taylor Leake Pronouns: he/him/his Digital Director Corporate Accountability ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ Photo source: #298 by Kelley Minars, [Flickr.]( 1.
