“Women of color are often told by mainstream society that the things that make us unique are deficits. It’s not true, and we must remind ourselves of this everyday. “The things that make us different could be our greatest assets.” — Alexis Anderson-Reed auroracommons.com/nc-content-fel…
When I think about all the discriminatory voting laws that have gone into effect since the Supreme Court’s 2013 Shelby County decision, it reinforces my firm conviction that #Congress must pass the John Lewis #VotingRights Advancement Act. #RestoreTheVRA campaignlegal.org/update/why-ame…
The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act was reintroduced today to restore crucial pieces of the Voting Rights Act, safeguarding our electoral system's foundation & providing essential protections for voters of color. Our statement: verifiedvoting.org/statement-john… #RestoreTheVRA
A decade after the devastating Shelby County ruling, the John Lewis VRAA is more crucial than ever. Since then, nearly 100 restrictive voting laws have been enacted, worsening racial turnout gaps and causing lasting damage to our democracy.
We stand united in urging Members of Congress to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, alongside the Freedom to Vote Act & Native American Voting Rights Act. Let’s protect our democracy and ensure everyone is represented. #RestoreTheVRA
TODAY: Senate Democrats, led by @SenSchumer, @SenatorDurbin and @SenatorWarnock, will reintroduce the landmark John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. Watch the conference at 12 pm ET. c-span.org/video/?533939-…
We celebrate today’s Senate introduction of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. In a crucial election year, it is vital for Congress to guarantee full democratic participation for all. #RestoretheVRA
BREAKING: Senators Durbin, Warnock, Schumer, Booker, Blumenthal, Butler reintroduce the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. The bill would update and restore critical safeguards of the original Voting Rights Act.
This critical legislation is put forward as we approach the 59th anniversary of Bloody Sunday when Black Americans — including John Lewis — endured brutal state-sponsored violence while marching for basic rights. #Selma59 naacpldf.org/news/nations-o…
