Today’s Action: Sign up to attend a March On for Voting Rights in your area THIS SATURDAY!
In the past eight months, there have been 389 voter suppression bills introduced across 48 states. These laws specifically target methods of voting that increase turnout, things like mail-in voting, banning ballot boxes, reducing early voting hours — and even going so far as to criminalize water distribution to long voting lines.
These laws pave the way for Republicans to rig elections by keeping Democrats from voting, and communities across America need protections at the federal level immediately. That’s why OD Action is cosponsoring March On For Voting Rights in major cities around the country THIS SATURDAY.
See if there are any March On For Voting Rights events in your area this Saturday, and if there are, sign up to attend! Can’t make it? Share about the event using the hashtag #VotingRightsMarch!
In the fight for our democracy, we need all hands on deck. We’ve already seen incredible acts of determination from legislators like the Texas Democrats, who risked arrest to block voter suppression bills; from Joyce Beatty, the Democrat from Ohio, who gathered an all-Black female protest at the Capitol and was subsequently arrested. Together, we have so much power -- use that power and join those leaders in the struggle for voting rights this weekend!
Make your voice loud and clear by signing up for a March On For Voting Rights event in your area, this Saturday! If you can’t make it, do your part to share the event using the hashtag #VotingRightsMarch!
