Tony Evers has VETOED new voter suppression legislation! Wisconsin’s majority-Republican legislature passed extremist voter suppression bills targeting elderly and disabled voters. These bills would have increased the barriers to voting by mail, making it harder to cast a ballot for those that can’t make it to the polls. But Wisconsin’s voter suppression bills are just one example of the onslaught of shameful voter suppression bills moving across the country. This year alone, Republicans have put forth more than 400 pieces of legislation that attack the right to vote in 49 states. 18 states have already enacted new restrictive laws – all based on Trump’s Big Lie about the 2020 election. Thankfully, Democratic governors are fighting back. Democratic governors like Gov. Evers are the last line of defense in the fight for voting rights, but they can’t stop the GOP in every state. They need backup. It’s time for Congress to take action by passing federal voting rights legislation supported by Stacey Abrams, Joe Biden, and Barack Obama that GUARANTEES the right to vote. But time is running out. We urgently need 467 supporters from NY to stand with Democrats like Gov. Evers and fight back.
