Republicans have proven they will only fight harder to suppress our right to vote -- so we can't let up our fight to combat their efforts either. Will you help us hit our End of Quarter goal and fight #votersuppression with #voterregistration? secure.actblue.com/donate/vo…
.@GregAbbott_TX is aiding in the revival of Texas Republicans' efforts to pass their voter suppression laws. We stood with Texas Democrats during their courageous walkout, and we'll stand with them as they take on this new fight, too.

"....Democrats introduced bicameral legislation on Tuesday aimed at preventing Republicans from allowing local election officials to be removed or appointed through partisan efforts."

🚨 "Between January 1 and May 14, 2021, at least 14 states enacted 22 new laws that restrict access to the vote."

By blocking the #ForThePeopleAct, Senate Republicans prevented proper solutions to combat gerrymandering across the country. Gerrymandered districts have silenced marginalized communities for far too long. We must continue our fight for voting rights.
Another day, another state sending voter suppression legislation through their state legislatures. Pennsylvania Republicans want to TIGHTEN deadlines, require STRICT voter verification requirements, and DECREASE flexibility on how voters return ballots: penncapital-star.com/governm…
.@VP is right. Any act to silence some Americans is felt by ALL Americans. We can't stop the fight now.
Our democracy is stronger when everyone participates—and it is weaker when people are denied meaningful access to participation. Today, as Senate Democrats united around the For The People Act, Senate Republicans voted against advancing it. My Statement: go.usa.gov/x6Vc9

We can’t be discouraged by temporary setbacks. It’s been a long march for voting rights, and we are just the latest to take up the mantle.
Tomorrow we put our shoes on and get back to work.

THREAD: (1/3) What happened in the Senate yesterday is downright shameful. Senate Republicans blocked the notion of even DISCUSSING a valuable piece of legislation that would expand our right to vote.
(2/3) And even worse, they showed Republicans in state legislatures across the country they're willing do everything in their power to support their despicable individual attempts at voter suppression. Our democracy cannot survive unless every eligible American can vote freely.
(3/3) VoterPAC is committed, now more than ever, to continue to be in the fight against voter suppression. We are ready to do our part to expand voter access for all. ADD YOUR NAME if you're united in the fight against voter suppression, too: secure.ngpvan.com/zBeCPTsXYU…
Senate Republicans just used their power to BLOCK Democrats' #ForThePeopleAct. We're sick and tired of their assault on our democracy. RETWEET if you agree Republicans should protect our right to vote, not destroy it.
It's downright disgraceful. Black Americans -- along with other Americans of color -- have LESS voting protections today than they had in 1965. All thanks to Republicans and their attacks on our sacred right to vote.

The only way we can end Republican voter suppression is by working together. Sign up to volunteer and help turn California's Central Valley blue:

Thanks to the @Bucks and 60+ other Wisconsin business leaders for their opposition to the voter suppression bills hurtling through their state legislature. It's clear we need #HR1 NOW! jsonline.com/story/news/poli…

Now is the time to take action. We only have a few days left before the Senate votes on the most sweeping anti-corruption bill of our lifetimes. Call your Senators now at represent.us/jen and tell them to vote YES on the #ForThePeopleAct
WATCH THIS: @chrislhayes breaks down the hypocrisy of the GOP repeating history by restricting the right to vote, all while they reject the instruction of that history

Texas Democrats are fighting voter suppression in their state with everything they have.
We need our federal leaders to do the same.
We must pass #HR1
